Located in the Bois de Vincennes in Paris (France) and inaugurated in 1894, the Cipale velodrome was the venue for the 1900 and 1924 Olympic Games, the finish of 7 Tours de France (1968 to 1974) and the famous Grand Prix de Paris (1894 to 1993). This last competition was, for a long time, the most important track sprint event in the world.
