- Flying lap: an individual time trial over 250 m (820.2 ft) with a "flying start".
- Points race: a 20 km (12.4 mi) points race, with scoring for intermediate sprints as well as for lapping the pack.
- Elimination race: a "miss-and-out" elimination race, with the last rider in every sprint (each two laps) eliminated.
- Individual pursuit: a 3 km (1.9 mi) individual pursuit, with placing based on time.
- Scratch race: a 10 km (6.2 mi) scratch race, with all riders competing at once and first across the line winning.
