£95 for EHU! you could power Jodrel Bank with that.
I feel a bit guilty reading all this as I know the top guy who is organising thisoh: what I can say is that knowing the major event he was in charge of previously it will be well organised generally including the camping area and will have a fall back plan in case of wet weather like roll out metal roadways etc ...
It is a bit more than camping so direct comparisons are difficult even though its an expensive weekend:Cool:

Evening everyone,
Firstly let me introduce myself I am the organiser of Velofest at Kilnsey Park in July.
I would like to thank you all for your feedback and constructive criticism about our event. We have seen a huge surge in bookings in the last few days with many of them coming from this forum and the campsite is now just over 70% full.
I appreciate many of you are worried that we are too expensive...compared to a permanent campsite yes we are expensive, however it is important to take into account the different variables. The TDF coming to Yorkshire is massive, one of the biggest events if not the biggest event to ever take place here. As a result, there are a lot of pop up campsites opening up and events being put on to celebrate this momentous occasion. Accordingly, many of the big ticket items such as generators, big screens, stages, wcs, shower blocks, tracking/fencing etc have shot up in value as demand outstrips supply. There are several cheaper alternatives to our site that would allow for a Motorhome and electric hook up, however this is not comparing like for like. We are offering the chance to be part of one of the biggest Tour de France parties in Yorkshire alongside the stage 1 route.
It is important to note that we are not simply a pop up campsite. Included in the £150 for tent or £190 for Motorhome/caravans we are offering:-
1. Entrance to the festival for 4 people (non campsite customers will pay £9 per person)
2. 1x parking space (non campsite customers will pay £10 per day)
3. Live music with several different bands every evening
4. Priority booking into the participation events that will be running on the Thursday and Friday.
To give you a price comparison there are currently 2 other events in Yorkshire that you can compare ours to in terms of size, quality of entertainment, facilities etc. The first charges £340 for 4 adults in a Motorhome plus a £40 Motorhome permit supplement with no option of electric hook up. The second charges £255 for 4 adults, includes 2 nights stay and includes festival entry and 1 parking spot.
Thank you for all your comments, whether you decide to join us or not, I hope you all enjoy Le Tour coming to Yorkshire.
For £190 + 90 I would want to be on Bradley Wiggin's crossbar - and no, that's not a euphemism

Whether or not we can survive without EHU for a few days is irrelevant, it's the fact that they think that they can charge £90 for it that indicates that in my opinion they are milking this for all it's worth.

Wait a minute you lot......................Dont you have to cross the Pennines to get there
Because it makes money for the organisers and participants by any chance?I don't follow this sport or the event, but could someone explain why the Tour de France can be seen in Yorkshire?oh:
Not from this side
