Cremona's track is born

On Saturday morning, 20 trucks rolled from Holland into Cremona, Italy, to build the 200m wooden velodrome that will be used for the Six Days of Cremona from February 6 to 11.

Technicians are hard at work to finish the building of the track by Sunday evening.

Fascinated by the quick assembly, Argentine Guillermo Berzins said, "It is almost unbelievable. In a few hours a velodrome can be born. The birth of this velodrome makes me even more excited going into the event."
