Classic Bike Show, Stafford, April '10
« on: November 09, 2009, 07:10:45 PM »
We have been invited to attend the April CB show. We haven't done this show before, but as many people commented in October, the two Stafford shows seem to be coming closer in content. I think we should take the opportunity to have a small club stand at this event, if only to gain a fistful of free weekend passes and the like.

I will reply saying that we would like to attend and I will say that we will bring 6 bikes.

Anyone keen to come along? As long as we get a few helpers the other tickets can go to TCers who can use the stand as the basis for a weekend's autojumbling, etc.

Good good, cheers guys

Any more? What it entails is turning up either friday afternoon or early Saturday and putting your bike on the stand. Then you will have to pitch a tent/park a van on the field. You get to spend two days at the show for free. There are bars open on site on Friday and Saturday evenings and Stafford is but a taxi-ride away.  The organisers are pretty strict now about keeping bikes on the stand until Sunday, but with enough warning bikes can be taken off on Saturday evening if you can only manage to bring it for one day.

As I said, once we have the bikes and owners sorted then any extra tickets can be offered out to club members and these people can just turn up and have fun.

I'll be there.  If it's warm enough, I may even bring the tent  ;)

I'll come as long as there is a fully delineated RS enclave......at the front! Is there a prize for club stands anymore?

Hi there
I have had a private invite to exhibit, but I would prefer to show my "new" SRX-4 Special on the club stand if possible but only if....

a) I finish it it time

b) You consider it good enough

c) You want it on there

I will do my utmost to finish it but may need a couple of parts/help just to finish off.

Ian  :)

Hmm, apparently it is 171 miles and a 3hr 10min from my house to the show ground.

I am cogitating on this one, and wondering if my tent is water proof still ;D

Me and my wilderbeast MT-03 are possible attendees
