Default Pom in a pickle

Hi - I live in Manchester,UK and so enjoyed the last event, have decided to visit The Games in Melbourne, but I am gutted to find there are no tickets left for the track events - or does anyone know any different? How can I get to see the track events?

Seems like you built your veldrome with as few seats as we did in Manchester!

But I'm coming over anyway, so any advice for local rides would also be appreciated.
cheers
Alan

Good luck trying to find tickets, there are a lot of annoyed people in this city that missed out on tickets to loads of events.

The only way you may get some is on a package deal through a travel agency or by hooking up with a corporate that has got tickets.

Beach Road/Napean Hwy from Port Melbourne - Sorrento = 90km of pretty flat riding with a few bumps and lovely bayside scenery.
The Dandenongs (1hr ride or 30min drive from Melb) has some nice hills.
Yarra valley also has some good mixed terrain.

Drop us a line when you're heading over, could hook up and take you out on a couple of rides.
