mrfunk Posted May 10, 2023 Report Share Posted May 10, 2023 Working this year, and when working at other festivals, I have always taken my bike.. really helps with getting about to get on shift easier. I have seen bikes before at Glasto, so the obvious question, are we able to bring a bike to use inside the festival? Obviously respecting the crowds etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pedal cycles are fine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s how I get my kit in with a trailer . The only issues I can foresee are around bike security with no lockups in the crew camps . And as mentioned cycling when busy is hard .

Didn’t use it much Fri onwards due to traffic but used it to bomb all over the site on Thursday. Put it in the lock ups when not using it.

Sawdusty surfer Posted May 11, 2023 Report Share Posted May 11, 2023 Having a push iron on site if crew is fantastic, especially during the build. Can't remember the last time that I didn't have one there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a mobile chair 🙂 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrfunk Posted May 11, 2023 Author Report Share Posted May 11, 2023 (edited) Thanks guys.. I do do have a home built ebike, its a Hybrid MTB, but might just go for a compact foldup, where if needed, I could fold it in half and wrap it round/lock to one of those scaf flag poles etc..plus would be smaller in the crowds.. just having a think, Edited May 11, 2023 by mrfunk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
