Because Eater, Dulwich Estates will not sign a lease longer than a rolling 2 years. Which means that VLC and local groups find it nigh on impossible to fundraise for any capital works, as the length of tenure is too short. The current surfacing is getting old, the covered stand is in a state of disrepair and can't be used any more, and the bleaker seats are getting old. The amount of voluntary hours that are put into the HH Velodrome to make sure that it's regularly open and accessible to both young children riding mountain bikes, or on track, to professionals using it on open meets is incredible.
