The Great British Olympic Committee, have in their wisdom and greed, decided to close Box Hill to any non ticket holders! And also cordon off quite a bit of the road leading to Box Hill. Apparently Box Hill is a conservation area; but they can sell 50,000 tickets at about £50, a ticket. Only in the UK Eh, Rip off Britain in action again.

I intend cycling out to find a free non-paying area to watch the race!

Your thoughts on this?
