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.
The 2000 Summer Olympics was the first official appearance of the triathlon in the Olympics. The 2004, 2008, and 2012 Olympics have all been identical to the first in distance. The distances used are the "international" or "standard" ones, with a 1.5 km (0.93 mi) swim, 40 km (25 mi) cycle, and a 10 km (6.2 mi) run.
If you think it's no, your wrong. If you think it's right, your wrong. It's both.
