About PIST6
PIST6 is a new Keirin event (Koei Kyogi) that began in Chiba in October 2021. It is a new world-standard cycle Track race, originating in Chiba and the first of its kind in Japan, based on the rules of Keirin, a bicycle race in which riders complete six laps around a 250m Track and compete for first place. Unlike previous Keirin, it is held in an international stadium and under international rules similar to those of the Olympics, making it a new form of sports entertainment.
