The outcome of this visit is very positive since the mountain bike circuit has now been finalised, the construction of the velodrome is going ahead according to plan (end of construction: August 2007) and the test events planned at the venues where the Olympic competitions will take place, grouped together in one venue, in Laoshan, 30 km west of the centre of Beijing, will be organised in 2007.
