Thanks to Eddie for the heads up on this one (or rather his old man).

It's pretty easy to find, just off the M40/M42 in Solihull which is the extreme southeast edge of the westmids.

It does appear to be open now (as of this monday) but the sports centres website says nothing about it.

Solihull Cycling Club does have some stuff on it http://solihullcc.org.uk/circuit_info.html

Circuit%2001

Proposed layout of the circuit

 

The circuit is approx 850metres long, 5metres wide with a 6metres finishing straight down the middle of the top. The profile of the circuit is labelled as ‘testing’ as Tudor Grange Park slopes away towards the Norman Green Athletics centre.

The circuit is now complete and a full program of training / coaching will be rolled out over the summer/autumn of 2008 ready for the 2009 cycling year.
