For reasons that escape me, none of the covered velodromes in the UK trust each other's accreditation. I have a current Glasgow accreditation and that will only grant me partial accreditation at London and Manchester (and probably Newport and Derby, I haven't checked), I'd still have to do at least one or two accreditation sessions to get fully accredited there.
Mind you, if I took out a race licence and entered a race meeting at any of these tracks, I could ride there without going through this. Not that I have any intention (or ability) to race. I just ride the truck for fun.
I could tell you why I think it is but doing so might be detrimental to my employment status…
Does anyone with UKIVA on their bc licence know if they get full access at all of the 4 velodromes that aren’t Glasgow or do you still have to do some sort of accreditation when riding ‘away’?
