Just back, 3 hours round it twice sat on a few bikes and made vroom vroom noises, I'll give it a miss for the next 2 - 3 years I reckon, still I made a decision on next years bike.

So much Chinese rubbish at this years show, there has always been a stand or two but this year there's a whole lot more.

It'll need to go, I have neither the garage space or the spare coin to keep it and get something else.
