Please note there are access restrictions on the road to the velodrome site
( a big bollard! ) and there will be “revenue protection” measures in place so expect to pay for every rider in every session( as usual)

Velodrome keys to allow access to bike storage will only be given out to designated individuals with prior approval from the centre and with a photo ID card that matches the list in the centre.

A rider accreditation programme will be implemented during 2010 to ensure that riders who use the velodrome in open training sessions have had sufficient instruction , training and observed performance in structured sessions to ensure that they are “track safe” before being allowed to use the track out with coach led sessions or competition.
This will be done by ESCA , Meadowbank TL and local coaches and instructors/ officials.
