Anyone going?

[cheb]

No, I'm washing my hair this weekend.

25 quid,or 22 for old bastards. It's probably ok for a day out,but no,I'll not be there.

[Supermofo]

I went last about 10 years ago I'd guess. Felt like I was being charged £20 to walk around a shop. Which it is in a way I guess.

[Buckaroo]

I'm giving it a miss. Been the previous 3 to 4 years on the bounce and concluded that it was not worth the effort.

At this rate, I'll have the place to myself!

We heard you were going

No Ducati!!!

OK Harley didn't bother with the NEC show, Piaggio don't bother with any shows any more... But when Ducati, the absolute marketing machine can't be bothered to exhibit at a show, it doesn't bode well in my book...

Too far for me anyway... And after the disappointment that was the NEC show in November, I think I'd rather spend the money on a tank of fuel for a bike instead anyway!

[rose tints on]Was so much better when it was at the Ally Pally[/rose tints off]

Went last year, even walking slowly around the show saw us back in the car an hour and a half later. Don't think we clawed back the entry fee let alone the parking costs.

I bet you got changed in the car park and walked round the show in your bike gear

Poured myself into my finest Dainese clobber just for the event.

Saw someone do that once at Ally Pally, what a wanker. Got out his car and stripped to his pants before putting a full race suit on and even took his lid out the car to carry round

[Noggin]

I saw quite a lot of people do that at the NEC over the years I went!! Always made me laugh a lot!! LOL

[Scootabout]

I wonder if it's the only time they put the biking kit on?

The missus says it sounds like a Comic Con event where people dress up as their fictional heroes and role play their way through the day.
