I was looking at the schedules for this with interest. What bothers me is that tickets for the events that I'd really like to attend, the ones that also attract the greatest interest, are very expensive. Ok I suppose I should have expected that, but £325 per ticket for the best seats at the track cycling? Even the cheap seats for most track cycling events are £50 each, so for a family of four that's £200 for a couple of hours of entertainment. That's before you factor-in travel and accommodation costs!
Having to rethink my plans. Now looking at cheaper seats, offsetting costs by also attending cheap or free events like the roadracing and spreading it all over several days to make more of a holiday of it.
You are also limited to a maximum of 4 tickets for most events, so no 'hoarding'.
