Tickets for the 2011 UCI Track Cycling World Cup in Manchester are now on sale.

The final round of the World Cup series comes to the National Cycling Centre from February 18-20 – just one month before the World Championships in Holland.

The series will begin in Melbourne, Australia on December 2-4, before heading to Cali, Colombia and Beijing, China before the finale hits Manchester.

The velodrome, home to Team GB’s track stars, enjoyed a sell-out crowd at the last World Cup it held in November 2009, with British riders winning 10 gold medals in front of a sell-out 10,000 crowd.

Tickets are available from just £4 for a daytime session on Friday and Saturday, while the best seat in the house is £23 on a blockbuster day of action on Sunday.
