Korean bicycle race history
Keirin first started in Japan in 1948, and was adopted as an official cycling event from the 2000 Sydney Olympics . The bicycle arena (Olympic Velodrome) built in the Olympic Park to host the 86 Asian Games and the '88 Seoul Olympics had no sharp utilization measures after the event. When the Olympic Velodrome was completed in 1985, about 13 billion won was invested in construction, but it was only used for about 15 days a year for various amateur cycling competitions. On the other hand, about 500 million won was spent on maintenance every year, but maintenance could not be neglected because of the commemorative nature of the Seoul Olympic facility. In particular, Pista, a bicycle raceway, was made of special wood from Africa, and corrosion was intensified due to rain and snow, which made it difficult to maintain. Even at the time of the Seoul Olympics, there was a review on how to utilize the velodrome after the Olympics. As a result, it was concluded that it was best to conduct bicycle racing to promote a healthy leisure culture for the people, expand local finances, and improve the level of bicycle competition. .
