At the 1908 Summer Olympics, seven track cycling events were contested, all for men only.

The weather was poor, with rainfall causing the track to flood on occasion.

[1] The track was 660 yards (600 m) long (being built around the perimeter of the White City Stadium's athletics track); some events (the 660 yards and the team pursuit) used full laps of the track; the others used metric distances.

A total of 97 cyclists from 11 nations competed at the London Games:[2] Cycle polo was a demonstration sport at these Olympics with Ireland winning, beating Germany.
