Default Bike access
Hi all..

If I arrive at the festival with a bike plus trailer with camping gear hitched on the back, does anyone know if I'll be able to walk the trailer using my bike into the site and pitch my tent, before locking the bike up for the weekend?

Cheers

OK, so I've had confirmation from Glastonbury Festival via the lovely people at PoWWow that wheeling your camping equipment on site with your bike, to pitch your tent, is allowed.

there is a dedicated 'cyclists field' on site this year, think details are on the main glasto website, but you get a 'green traveller' package etc, and u get passes to use site showers or something.

Though did read there that you did have to lcok your bike up in the lock-up there for the duration of the weekend, which I thought was a bit weird! I'm putting my bike on the back of the campervan and am going to be using it to get about the site as long as it's not too muddy!
