I'm going back about 40ish years, at Ystrad. I think the 'distance' trip then was 515 metres lol. Did you ever run your dogs at bedwellty? @socks @shaaark Wasn't Bedwellty track on the wonk(not flat)? Do they still run dogs at Ystrad&Bedwellty? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Do they still run dogs at Ystrad&Bedwellty? Yep, track was a tad 'chellenging' lol. From the sprint start, at the top right end, after the 1st bend it was 'definitely' downhill, around that bend and coming past the stand it was flat, then going around that bend, went uphill. Lol. Closed years ago. Can't remember the year, it was quite a number of years back. Sure socks will know. Think ystrad, 'valley greyhound stadium' just race on Saturdays, now? Again, socks will know.
