Hong Kong Velodrome
Hong Kong Velodrome is a velodrome in Tseung Kwan O, Hong Kong. It has a 250-metre cycling track and spectator facilities for 3,000 people. It opened on 30 December 2013 next to the Tseung Kwan O Sports Ground.

The velodrome officially opened on 30 December 2013. The inaugural international event, the 2014 Hong Kong Intern ...
