Just heard British Cycling and Dulwich Trust (the velodrome landlord) have agreed a 15-year deal to save the Herne Hill Velodrome.

Gotta be happy with that.

    Good to see my BC subs are being put to good use. (Now must find out where in Herne Hill it is - lived very near there for a few years and never saw it :oops:

    I started my track "career" there about 35 years ago. I am glad to see that it will keep going for a while at least.

    Excellent news, I plan to give this a go in the spring. May try taking my daughter to the off roading in the morning first and see how she enjoys that. Gotta be better than taking her swimming.

    Don't be so mean. Why not let her do both then see which one she prefers? :P

    Good news on HHV. Maybe I'll actually vsit during that timescale.
