  Team pursuit track cycling is a bicycle racing sport held on velodromes and
is part of the Summer Olympics. It involves the use of strategies to minimize
the overall time that a team of cyclists needs to complete a race. We present
an optimisation framework for team pursuit track cycling and show how to evolve
strategies using metaheuristics for this interesting real-world problem. Our
experimental results show that these heuristics lead to significantly better
strategies than state-of-art strategies that are currently used by teams of
cyclists.
