No offence intended to anyone who didn't get an offer to show bikes at the show. It was a real rushed job and once I'd got the first three bikes then I stopped thinking about having stuff for the stand and go on with sorting out the details. Furry, I was told that you were going to the Thundersprint that weekend and that's why I didn't ask you to show a bike. Plenty of Brit stuff there, as it happens.

Jethro, I have a guilty confession, I have to admit I thought you were joking when you offered the CG...  :-[ :-[ :-[ I guess it turns out I'm as size-obsessed as the next biker.

There were no free tickets to offer to club members as they organisers were restricting them to entrants only and not (as at Stafford) giving out a bundle to clubs.

Here's how the stand looked


My GB (work in Progress)


Warren's XT660


Rob's CB250 attracted lots of interest


A good result for a very rushed job, if I say so myself.

In case anyone is wondering the VF500 was there as a favour to Robg because he wanted to sell it (which he did).

To be fair, I thought you were taking the Mickey as well.

One of the highlights of the show was meeting a bloke who owned a spoked wheel XBR. When he described the bike I had the joy of telling him that I knew its ex-owner and I had once crashed it on the access road at Pembrey circuit... I'm guessing it didn't make his day  ;)
