• £20 an hour! This velodrome just lost my love..I'm starting wish they build some bloody houses on it now!

  • Imagine if you built a permanent court then they turn round and say there is a price hike..they don't want bike polo they just wanted us to get the money to refurbish it. If they build a proper court they could charge those prices!

  • There is a kids skills bike session on every Saturday from 1 until 2 during the summer, it's not just a party.

  • im in for saturday. HH or downs! just dont know what time ill be back from work. hopefully will be 1ish.
    i think somebody is hugely misinformed about HH. the problem is if they do refurbish it and then try to charge those prices we just walk away and see how many slots like that they actually fill because from the past year or so ive been here the childrens saturday session and the odd track event are the only times its ever used

  • Let just play after the kids session as we always do .if we try to book ofcourse they will ask for more

  • It shouldn't be that way at all though. Peter has asked us to 'book' out of making sure it doesn't conflict, not as a way of getting money out of us.

    The kids sessions have been at that time and on that day for months now, and they asked us if it was going to be a problem before they started them.

    The above means to say: I think whoever replied to Chris' email is either having a super bad day/attitude problem (neither is new) or has the wrong end of the stick completely.

    Chris, you don't have to reply but if you could forward the email to any of us we'll try and sort it, by politely asking them WTF and explain there really isn't that much money in the sport to play those kinds of fees, and our reluctance to even maintain the current structure with that kind of rhetoric is wearing thin. Which I suppose solves our problem of dismantling and disposing of it :)

    For many reasons don't have the patience for this shit anymore.

    Play at Downs.

  • Actually, reply with this:

    Then just turn up as the kids session is ending.

  • I'll send them an email tomorrow, and bring it up at the meeting next week.

  • Give them a piece of your mind Kev. I can just picture them now, and I don't like it one little bit.

  • I'm in for polo Saturday or Sunday....where eva!

  • So polo at downs tomorrow. Shall we start a list on the north thread?

  • Oh man... :(
