A number of people were seen riding on the Olympic Cycling Track yesterday morning. A board highlights the Guinness World Record achieved by the Public Works Authority (Ashghal) for the ‘Longest Continuous Cycling Path’ at 32.869km (20.4 miles). Besides the record for the Olympic Cycling Track, Ashghal had on Saturday also announced that it had set another Guinness World Record for the the Longest Piece of Asphalt Concrete Laid Continuously’. Both the records were achieved within the Al Khor Road project. The Olympic Cycling Track extends on Al Khor Road, measuring around 33km in length and 7m in width. It can be used for international sports competitions, especially because the track has been designed to allow speeds up to 50km/h. PICTURES: Ram Chand
