Not sure why but there don't appear to be any? Thought I'd drag the OH along to one of the evening sessions...

Here's the schedule

the event apparently sold out within hours when they first went on sale so they can only have had a handful available for each session this time round. They will have gone by five past ten if you could get online at all... frown

Went online non stop from just before 10am for these.

Was looking for a specific session but resorted to trying for single tickets for any session.... NOTHING.

Did anybody get any on this round?

Not a single ticket in any session - gave up at 10.20 having tried again and again. Got one of teh girls at the office to try as well and she came up with nothing at 10am and for 15 mins after.

Is this another ticket balls up or a slimy piece of PR to get it all back in teh press and news again?

Oh well; will just have to make do with my Olympic track and road race tix smile

There are some tickets for the Thursday evening session on BikeRadar classifieds if anyone wants them. I can't do Thursday though.

Logged on at 9.58 and managed to bag four tickets for Saturday morning (which is the early rounds of the Omnium, Sprint and Keirin - chuffed with that)

Tried to bag a few more tickets for Sunday (at 10.05!) but it was all sold out

i reckon they only had a handful returned by other nations etc.

Better news is the olympic people and the National Trust have negotiated something like 10,000 tickets for Box Hill for the road race, applications etc go live soon but i have no idea who, what, when or where...i'm probably just going to head out on to a quiet part of the route like any other tour stage and watch them come past the once and avoid the faff. i dont think there and back is cycleable from Bristol in a day looking at the timings frown
