I seem to recall there's some form of 'sprint' in track cycling which usually ends up being as exciting as watching paint dry. There are two riders and they both end up track standing up at the top of the banking, waiting for the other rider to get bored and go for it, so they can grab their wheel and slingshot around them to win. So, mostly they do nothing for a long time.
