In order to test venues, timing systems and the like the London 2012 people are putting on pre-events at certain venues ahead of the London Olympic Games. The MTB course at Hadleigh Farm in Essex is one of the venues holding such an event this summer, basically a test race to see if things run smoothly. I'm contemplating going to this, you can bet all the pro's will be there wanting to see what the course is like to race.
It's on the 31st July, tickets are £20 through Ticketmaster. Let me know if you are interested.
