I can only presume that the City Rumble will incorporate it (mad if it didn't!) but in case any of you want to have a practice.......there is a wonderful tunnel in Cardiff Bay - slopes down, bends (so you can't see exit when entering), then back up - absolute hoot in terms of acoustics...;-)

Here: www.multimap.com/map/browse.cgi?client=public&X=319000&Y=175000&width=500&height=300&gride=&gridn=&srec=0&coordsys=gb&db=freegaz&addr1=&addr2=&addr3=&pc=&advanced=&local=&localinfosel=&kw=&inmap=&table=&ovtype=&zm=1&scale=25000

Anyway, just thought I'd mention it......
