IOC Coordination Commission chairman Denis Oswald visited the Velodrome for the London 2012 Olympic Games on Thursday as he led a team coming here for a three-day visit.

After visiting the 6,000 seat Velodrome which will host the track cycling events at the 2012 Olympic and Paralympic Games, Oswald said that "every visit to the Olympic Park provides us with yet another impressive sign of the progress that is being made here and today's visit is no exception.

"As an amateur cyclist, it's fantastic to see the finished track in London's new Velodrome. I'm sure that athletes like Chris Hoy will love competing here in 2012 and that future generations of cyclists."

The work was completed on the timber cycling track, keeping the Velodrome on target to be the first Olympic Park venue to be completed early next year.

After the Games, the Velodrome will be used by elite athletes and the local community and will include a cafe, bike hire and cycle workshop facilities.
