The season ran from 4 November 2011 to 19 February 2012. The World Cup is organised by the Union Cycliste Internationale. In this edition the World Cup consisted of four rounds in Astana, Cali, Beijing and London.
The series played a key role in who qualified for the 2012 Summer Olympic Games and had its final round staged in the Veldorome where the Olympics were later held in London, as well as having a round in the 2008 Summer Olympic Games Velodrome in Beijing.

The fourth round took place in London between 17 and 19 February 2012, and formed part of the 'London Prepares' series of test events for the 2012 Olympics. It was the first event to take place in the Olympic velodrome.
All three medal winning teams in the women's team pursuit went under the previous world record time of 3:19.569, held by the USA. Great Britain's Dani King, Joanna Rowsell and Laura Trott set a new world record of 3:18.148.[3]
The Australian pairing of Anna Meares and Kaarle McCulloch broke the women's team sprint world record in the qualifying round, setting a new time of 32.828. The previous time of 32.923 was also set by Australia two years previously. But, they failed to repeat the performance in the final, losing to Great Britain's Jess Varnish and Victoria Pendleton who raised the bar to set a new world record of 32.754.[4]
