2012 UCI World Juniors Track Championships
In 2012 the ILT Velodrome will host the Juniors World Track Cycling Championships. In June 2009, the UCI awarded the 2012 Championships to Invercargill following a joint bid by BikeNZ and Cycling Southland. It is the second time New Zealand has hosted the event which was last held outdoors at Wanganui in 1983, while BikeNZ also staged the 2006 Mountain Bike World Championships in Rotorua and the UCI Mountain Bike Trials World Cup in 2009.
