European Popularity in Cycling Track (II)

Racing began hesitantly after 1945. The first in Germany for 17 years were in 1950.Eventually the decline began in Europe as well. Races continued through the night, as they had in the USA, but the costs of keeping open stadiums for partygoers who'd missed the bus and a small number of dedicated fans were too great.

London dropped night racing when it revived six-day racing in 1967 and the following year the new organizer, a former rider called Ron Webb, scheduled just the afternoon and evening, with a break between sessions. Other organizers were not impressed and insisted Webb calls his race a "six" and not a "six-day". One by one, however, they followed Webb's pattern and there are now no old-style 24-hour races left. The last was Madrid. There the riders trundled round all night or, if they could get away with it, slipped off for bed.
