Cycling: Ulmer to race in three events at World Cup meet

1.00pm

Sarah Ulmer has been confirmed for three events at this weekend's World Cup track cycling meet in Sydney.

Ulmer will race in the pursuit, points race and scratch race, with a view to confirming her place at the world championships in Melbourne in a couple of weeks.

The Sydney meet will be packed full of world stars, who are in Australia not only for the championships, but also pushing to qualify for the Olympics in August.

National coach Kurt Innes says the meet cannot start soon enough, with Ulmer ready for a heavy workload.

He says she is trying to get a good bearing on where she sits amongst the world's best.

Innes says their camp in Adelaide over the past several days has been a great help, bringing the team together for Sydney.

A strong team of 10 has been confirmed for the World Cup meet which gets underway on Friday.
