Shadders Posted August 1, 2012 Report Share Posted August 1, 2012 If Walkabout in Cardiff is th best you have found I feel sorry for you.There are 100's maybe 1000's of places that are better than Walkabout! Instead of feeling sorry for me why don't you name a few of these 100's of places. I've not been going to the GP's for very long, so only go where I know my speedway buddies will be and that's been the Walkabout since 2008.

emerald tyke Posted August 2, 2012 Report Share Posted August 2, 2012 http://www.speedwaygp.com/news/article/1669/flawless-in-cardiff Well could have been worse. Looking forward to the brass band (me being a Yorkshire lass ). I think I have also read that the rewaco trikes are doing the riders parade again this year....must say always create a great start to the meeting. Roll on 25th!!

The Know Posted August 2, 2012 Report Share Posted August 2, 2012 (edited) gutted, first year for as long as i can remember not going and they put entertainment on like this. maybe i will buy a ticket after all. Â watched nascar two weeks ago, they had Train among others as pre entertainment :-) Edited August 2, 2012 by The Know Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've not been going to the GP's for very long, so only go where I know my speedway buddies will be and that's been the Walkabout since 2008. Stand outside Walkabout and look around you. You'll see about 15-20 places straight away. I really dont understand why people go to Walkabout, it's boring, bland and generally crap in every way. It doesn't okay any specific genre of music either so it can't be for that. And if Trees is right people go to get closer to speedway riders then WOW!

Its always a great day all in all. Some folk on here put way too much emphasis on the acts but after all it is the speedway racing thats important and everything else is a bonus.

Woz01 Posted August 2, 2012 Report Share Posted August 2, 2012 Once youve seen one dance act then youve seen them all. Pre entertainment does not interested me at all, why would i want to get into the stadium early and pay more for my drinks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

New Science Posted August 5, 2012 Report Share Posted August 5, 2012 The Walkabout with it's drunk riders and fans were all part of the Cardiff entertainment ....... 10 years ago anyways Will there be an alternative meet up venue this year,always looked forward to a few beers in Walkabout on the Friday night Stand outside Walkabout and look around you. You'll see about 15-20 places straight away. I really dont understand why people go to Walkabout, it's boring, bland and generally crap in every way. It doesn't okay any specific genre of music either so it can't be for that. And if Trees is right people go to get closer to speedway riders then WOW! We are still waiting for you to name somewhere.From a 1000 venues you have gone down to a hundred and now down to 15-20.We need a meet up venue which can accommodate hundreds of speedway fans alongside the throngs of cardiff locals on a summers night out,baring walkabout can't think of many venues that have the capacity and are open late enough.Over to you SCB (or anyone else who has ideas) would be a shame to not have a central meet up venue !

I'd be forever naming names as there's so many. If you like walkabout then go for O'Neils. Walkabout is at the bottom of the street with a massive number of clubs, just walk up the road, you can't fail to find a club. We're talking Cardiff here, not some little village. If you want a list, use google as frankly every other club in Cardiff is better than Walkabout.  There are apparently between 50 and 60 bars/pubs/clubs on that road alone. More if you want to go looking. Edited August 5, 2012 by SCB Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
emerald tyke Posted August 7, 2012 Report Share Posted August 7, 2012 Yes O'Neills would be the way to go......being an Irish bar and therefore loads of craic!!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
