Jon26 Posted June 30, 2014 Share Posted June 30, 2014 I'm hoping to drive with bike in car to rivelin/loxley/wisewood area then cycle/walk to find a good vantage point somewhere near high brad field. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mecky Posted June 30, 2014 Share Posted June 30, 2014 Top of Jenkin Road where it turns right out towards Meadowhall, things should be heating up around there too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Funky_Gibbon Posted June 30, 2014 Share Posted June 30, 2014 Top of Jenkin Road where it turns right out towards Meadowhall, things should be heating up around there too Lovely view looking down over the valley too although the best view of the actual race would be a little further down by the Nisa shop as you can see all the way to the bottom of the road and up the road to where it hits the steepest part of the hill. Not quite as nice as sitting on the grass at the top though, apparently there will be festival stalls, beer tent etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mps32 Posted June 30, 2014 Share Posted June 30, 2014 I am thinking about going out to bradfield to watch, anyone got any idea to what tne parking will be like around damflasks. There appears to be one way system operating but not sue if there will be parking restrictions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

999tigger Posted June 30, 2014 Share Posted June 30, 2014 My concern with public transport is the obvious one. It is OK getting on a tram at the terminus at Halfway and travelling to the event. It is totally another expecting to get on a tram home when there are 20,000 folk waiting at the transtop half an hour after the event passes by. We went to Wembley to watch Muse about a year back. We got back to the tube only to find the road blocked with folk trying to get into the station. It was a total waste of time as was thinking we would wait an hour for the queues to die down by getting a pint in a local boozer. Think a lot of people at the meadowhall fanfest will just go shopping after and then catch the train/tram when its quietened down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
