Grassroots Trust Velodrome: Opinions
Fantastic experience: A very interesting visit.
Positive experience: Very good service
Fantastic experience: This is a large velodrome which hosts many national and club cycling events. We were driving through the area when we just stopped by and decided to visit the place, which we would have easily skipped. We were pleasantly surprised to see the facilities and the infrastructure. The club events going on there were a treat to watch and the kids had their adrenaline rush too. The entry was easy and ample parking was available, although it was busy due to the ongoing cycling event. A café is available on site and ticketed events can be attended too. Well recommended if one can spare some time while zooming past the location on the motorway.
Hi Raghav, thanks so much for stopping by! We are so glad you enjoyed checking out the Velodrome and got to see some cyclists on the track too. Great pics! Look forward to seeing you next time.

Positive experience: First time visitors to the Cafe. 3 staff said "will be with you soon" it wasn't overly busy! Finally got order placed, 2 flat white coffee, paid and went and sat down. A while later we noticed a staffer walking around with 2 cups, he stopped at the table just before us, then back to the counter. We tried getting his attention. Next he came back with a note and asked us if we ordered 2 flat whites? Then berated us for not taking a number?

Fantastic experience: Bikes are cool. I like biking. If you like biking you will hate the Valondrome no one likes biking more than me. I repeat no one.
Negative experience: Just wanted to warn any overseas visitors, don't attempt to go to the Cambridge valodrome. The valodrome or the Cafe will only accept NZ vaccine certificates. If you were fully vaccinated in another country, ie Australia, you can't get a NZ vaccine certificate, because you weren't vaccined in NZ. We have our Australian government international vaccine certificate, but not good enough for the valedrome. So OVERSEAS VISITORS NOT WELCOME!!!!
