Cycling to football

[Fifelad]

I have started taking my bike to Celtic Park for matches.
It's quicker, cheaper and easier.
No parking problems either.
There is a cycle rack next to the club store and plenty more across the road at the velodrome.
The club/ stewards have no issues around taking a bag in with your helmet etc.
Only minus is not being allowed in with water bottles , but all in ,it's been a positive experience.ring
Are other clubs as welcoming ?

I’m not being funny here, but I’d be concerned about it getting knicked while watching the game. I’ve got real problems by the way I’m a Pars fan 🤷‍♂️

I must admit, I've often thought about going round there myself and moving a couple to the away end.

Obviously just as a little social experiment.

I was back again today.
Pretty busy for a damp day .
Never heard of anyone having a bike stolen from this area outside Celtic Park on a match day.

Pars fan....our charity cycle next year will be calling at your ground.
40 years on from Jock Stein's death we're planning on going to the Scottish grounds he managed at .
Bit out of sync for route planning logistics.
Start at Easter Road, head to Dunfermline then back to Glasgow via Kincardine bridge and canal.
Hampden then Celtic Park.
We might be looking for a local guide in Fife.

@pjd57 I won't be cycling to Glasgow tomorow night to see Utrecht against Celtic. The smart money is on a home win. Utrecht have 1 point from their Euro campaign and have lost their last 5 matches in a row. The standard of play is abysmal. Won't be as good as the last time the two sides met.

I cycled to that match . Good luck!

I'll be cycling to the game tomorrow night as usual.
Normally I'd be a bit concerned about a midweek in January but the weather has been not bad recently.
Forecast is 0% chance of rain and 3°.

Can cope with that

Fair weather supporter here.
It was below freezing and raining/sleeting. If the match had been in Utrecht, I wouldn't have got home before half twelve at night.

Congratulations on your win.

Another midweek winter ride last night.
Usual 7.5 miles to Celtic Park + same again home.
Wasn't wet going which is all I hope for.
Bit wet on the way back but that's not a problem as its home , tea , bed .

And trikes are a fantastic destination machine, for events like bike races etc. When you get there, you have your own lawn chair, and dont have to set on the ground.

I think you've misunderstood this thread.

I mean just going as a spectator.
