The Keirin is raced over a distance of 2000 metres with a maximum field of eight riders. A motorbike (derny) paces the field over the first 1400 metres, starting off at 30km/h and bringing the riders up to 50km/h. (Women’s Keirin 25–45km/h). Riders manoeuvre for the most favourable position before the derny leaves the track. No cyclist is permitted to pass the derny, which departs with two and a half laps remaining and then the battle begins.
