How much - roughly - to build a track???

[Bushwacked]

Been quoted two figures.... £50k and £500k - anyone have any ideas which is more realistic...?

Looking at either regional standard or National standard (but suspect Regional is fine)

If you need to bring in soil then around £100k for a good regional standard track

£500k would be for an internation standard track i would say

can you expand on this?

as in you are putting proposals to the local council and they are not having any of it?

have you canvassed local business/chamber of commerce etc?

I never raced at Crewe!! 

We popped in on the way back from Creation after my bike got nicked and I fooked myself up tryin' and failin' to do some Freestylin'!!

What about Lottery funding OR  Olympic Ctte Funding?   

"They've" just given £20million to cycling (was it 20?)...admittedly it's daft giving MORE cash to what we're GOOD at, but if it means (possibly) more BMX tracks then let's take it!!




That Manchester track looks nails...I'm out of breath an sweatin' just looking at it...
