The Gravesend one or the Velopark?

Velo park.

Velo park.

Aha, thanks. There had just been a reference to the Gravesend one and I didn't know. But if it's bookable for groups, it might be worthwhile doing a cyclechat outing some day. A sort of Sunday London Ride Around In Circles....

I've been round the cyclopark at Gravesend. It's fun, has some ups and downs and bends. Can practice group riding and such like.

I think it's cheaper on a Wednesday evening, Could be wrong heard some one talking about it a while back.

Interesting. I wonder what we could get up to. A fastest lap. An off road 10 miler. (No idea why I find it interesting because I'm not in the least competitive with other people. But it could be fun.)

The Gravesend one looks fun . Might do that one next ! If I drive to Lee Valley again I will take the A406 . Driving through the city even on a sunday is like rush hour grrrrrrr .
Roll on the spring so I can ride there

Yes I do use this from time to time, open sessions are every Tuesday and Thursday evenings but they don't start until 8.15 pm which is not ideal. It also gets a bit boring just going round and round the circuit.

I'm visiting the Gravesend one in the Spring with a bunch of suits - not sure I'll get an actual go on it but it will be interesting to see.

Interested to read these posts, as I bought my husband a track experience voucher for Christmas for him to try something completely different.

Chatting to a bloke at work this week. He bought a session on the indoor track for his daughter at Lee Valley, he said it was brilliant and she loved it.

If it's the indoor velodrome he will love it.
