Mcn London Bike Show

next weekend... Is anyone going?

I want to go but have no one to go with and don't really want to go on my own!

 

I'll be going both Saturday & Sunday

 

Some of the guys from my office are now going hoorah so I'll be there on sat too

 

Saturday for us

 

Saturday for us too, if my ticket ever turns up!

 

I'm thinking of going Saturday, but cant decide

 

I have a Saturday ticket.

 

I'll be on the 'Trail Riders Fellowship' stand in the 'Adventure' section both days if anyone wants to pop by

Don't ask for Carl though as i'll respond to Tim a lot quicker

 

It was a very busy 2 days getting to meet & chat to lots of people at the show. By 3pm on Saturday I got the chance to have something to eat & to gulp down some cold coffee. having got there by 8am both days & not finished until 6pm on Saturday & 4.30pm yetserday I was glad to get home & to rest aching feet from so much standing up.

Good to meet Eileen on Saturday & have a chin wag about bikes. It's so much better to put a face to a name

 

Really good to meet you too Tim!

I had a great time at the show too, narrowed down to a few bikes what I'd like to get when I pass full test

 

We didn't see your stand but we were planning to come and say Hi if we saw you. We had a great time. I bought a couple of things I'd been wanting for a while and I really enjoyed the slow speed control demo. I knew most of it in theory but it was much better watching an expert showing off.

 

Quite a few people missed the TRF stand because it was stuffed away in one corner. But many people walked through the main entrance & turned right & walked around the outside of the hall & found us straight away. There was an inappropriate BMW 1200GS on the stand, together with a Honda CRF250L which was jacked up with the front wheel out, as though it had a puncture. But it seemed to be the continuously running DVD showing on a big screen that people stopped to watch.

I'm sure that it was much busier on the Saturday, probably due to the Sunday being St. Vals Day. But I still ended up with sore feet due to no chance to sit down.

 

I was glad I wasn't rich otherwise I'd have a massive headache. There's too much choice.

 

I'm sure that if I was looking to buy my 2nd bike after doing my bike test then I would've been spoilt for choice. There're so many good looking bikes around I know for sure that 'L' plates wouldn't last long
