When the Tour ends every July it’s always a feeling of “What do I watch now?” Luckily every four years you have something new to look forward to. The Olympics. And specifically the Olympic cycling events. There are seemingly an endless amount of sports and even multiple disciplines within sports. Cycling is one of these with events ranging from the road race, to a number of events on the track, to mountain biking, and even BMX. The first event, the Men’s Road Race, takes place on day 1 of the Olympics while the last cycling event, the Men’s Mountain Bike Cross Country Race, takes place on the last day, day 16.
