Andy, will riders need a velodrome specific bike or will existing road bikes be allowed on the oval ?

Cheers Melly

Hi Melly

There maybe a limited number of 'freewheel' sessions, however we are hoping to have a fleet of track bikes for hire so everyone can enjoy the full track experience.

Hi Andy, thanks for that, looking good up there, but that is clearly the wrong answer, you are supposed to reply "Yes Sarah, Simon will require another bike to ride the Veledrome"

Amazing news!! I can see myself practically living there when it's up and running! Great work and thanks to all involved

Hi Melly, don't know what came over me! Of course track bikes are the ONLY bike to ride over 250 metres
