Lap Times
If the track length is L then you can write down the speeds and the distance between the cyclists at any given time in terms of L. The cyclists meet when the relative distance covered is a multiple of L. You might like to model this using a cardboard tube and threads. Think of the length of the tube as the time axis and the threads around the tube showing the cyclists path on the track.
