Spectating at Rhyd y Felin NDS?

Has anybody got any experience of spectating at this venue please?

I’m keen to go and watch but it’s a fair drive and I’d hate to go to find out that you can’t access much of the track and just watch from the bottom of the field.

Any tips appreciated!

Thanks

You can walk up a large chunk of it yes. It can get a bit of a techy ascent as the trail isn’t allowed but for sure it’s ok.

You can leave any stuff in our gazebo/van and we’ll even have a beer chilled when you get back down.

Weeksy, you really are a nice bloke.

Thanks Weeksy, a very kind offer!

I’ll get in touch if we end up going ?

:Yeah matey, feel free. you can get me on weeksy59@hotm***.com

We’ll be there from Fri to Sunday. It’s no biggy matey. There’s stuff in terms of food options, there’ll be a couple of food vans and if needed there’s a pub in the village at the end of the lane.

Beware there’s NO signal (Unless on EE) anywhere for 3-4 miles, every now and again you may get an SMS, but that’s about it. The pub in village does have wi-fi though you can use.

It’s a great track and if you can, do the track walk on the Fri or Sat evening, you can see then just how techy it is.

It’s not the biggest field in terms of superstar pro riders sadly

I think they’re all at/around Loudenville for the WC.  But to be honest that doesn’t detract from the weekend IMO. You’ll still get to see plenty of fast bikes, fast riders and have some fun 🙂
