There is no publicly available birthdate for Christian "Pancho" Meyer, the husband of author Stephenie Meyer (nee Morgan). He was likely born in 1972 or 1973.

German cyclist and Olympic medalist Christian Meyer is 48 years old (born December 12, 1969).

I will answer this one with two catagories, where you live afterwards and where you don't. For surviving, I think the fastest a human has ever gone with no mechanical assitance is about 26 mph in a running sprint. For not surviving, the human body in freefall can reach speeds of around 120 mph before being limited by terminal velocity. However, if you had no machines involved there would be no parachute, so you would not survive the experience.

This answer is wrong. Speed skating is non-mechanical and people skating can reach speeds of over 30 miles per hour. Skates are just blades attached to your feet and are not "mechanical". We could call them aids but they are definitely non-mechanical. Japanese Joji Kato is the world record holder for the 500 meter sprint where he averaged 14.58 meters/second which is 32.39 mph.

The general name for an arena where cyclists ride round and around on a banked track is a velodrome.

On top of that, each arena usually also has its own individual name.

The most all time medals won in Olympic equestrian events is 8 by Reimer Klimke of Germany (6 gold, 2 bronze), Isabell Werth of Germany (5 gold, 3 silver), and Anky van Grunsven of Netherlands (3 gold, 5 silver).

You need a helmet need to know how to ride a bike and carry a puncture repair kit with you at all times :)

For the 2008 Games in Beijing, the USOC had three official track training centers: 1) ADT Event Center Velodrome in Carson, CA

2) Lehigh Valley Velodrome in Trexlertown, PA

3) 7-Eleven Velodrome in Colorado Springs, CO A BMX training facility was opened in January, 2008 at the US Olympic Training Center in Chula Vista, CA.

Cycling was first competed at the first Modern Olympics in 1896 in Athens.
The first road race was held in the 1896 games in Athens
Cycling made its debut at the 1896 Olympics in Athens. The first race was a 100 kilometer race held on a track 1/3 km long. Leon Flameng of France won the gold medal in a time of 3:08:19.2.

No one really knows. In all probability, as soon as there was more than one bike around someone said "I bet I can get to the church from here faster than you" and competitive cycling was born.

Olympic standard velodromes may only measure between 250 m and 400 m, and the length must be such that a whole or half number of laps give a distance of 1 km. Others range from 133 m to 500 m, although 250m is the most popular and the length used in major events.

The equipment needed for cycling includes a bike. You will also need the proper work out clothing to exercise in.

Mountain biking was contested at the 2008 Games ... it was called 'Cross Country'. The gold medal winners were Julien Absalon of France in the men's division and Sabine Spitz of Germany in the women's division.

This depends on the discipline. Thoroughbred racehorses are backed, or taught to wear a saddle, as yearlings and raced as two-year-olds. Most people frown on this because it causes the horses to wear up and die young. Dressage, show jumping, eventing etc. requires more intensive training, and a seven or eight year old horse is only at the beginning of his career. (By this age a successful racehorse would have been retired from racing and used exclusively for breeding for several years). Haute ecole, or high school, horses must be trained for even longer. These 'performing horses' are not often competed with and are usually seen in public demonstrations of horsemanship. The most famous haute ecole establishment is the Spanish Riding School in Vienna, responsible for making Lipizanners famous. Difficult dressage manouvres such as the piaffe, capriole and levade take many years to teach to a horse, and haute ecole horses only start performing around age 13.

Great Britain won 5 gold medals at the 1992 Summer Games in Barcelona:

1) Sally Gunnell - women's 400 meter hurdles

2) Linford Christie - men's 100 meter dash

3) Chris Boardman - men's 4000 meter individual pursuit cycling

4) Steven Redgrave and Matthew Pinsent - men's coxless pairs rowing

5) Jonny Searle, Greg Searle, and Garry Herbert - men's coxed pairs rowing

well the stuff that poped in my head is they use heavy balls, tennis rackets, pingpong bats, baseball bats, skying thingy well and that's all

Bicycle racing started out as road races, and that has remained fairly recognizable over the years. People ride faster, team tactics have become more developed but that's the main points about road racing.

Then there was the track racing, the single events(time trial) as opposed to the group events that sprung out of road riding.

But as the bike developed into several specialized versions (BMX, MTB etc) these too developed their own forms of competitions.

A good track cyclist can reach about 60 KMH, 37-38 MPH.

the qualities to be an Olympic athlete are strength,power,speed,balince

It is the sport of Olympic cycling. Long distance races include road cycling and cross-country cycling.

I will not swear this is all of them. All track cycling events at the 1984 Games were for men only so that is why more men are listed than women.
