Anybody off to the cycle show at the Nec

ditto, I wouldn't go if I had to pay for tickets/travel

Understandable. I had a free trade ticket, and it's all free electricity for the car, so the extortionate £12 car parking fee from NEC balanced it out.

What, not even if I was going again?

Ah good point but I think my ticket was free then too!!

 

[mikeymustard]

I'm going tomorrow. I agree about the bikes looking the same, and there were less freebies to blag last year, but I like it to get to speak to the small manufacturers

I haven't been to nahbs or the one in Bristol. Wouldn't mind Ching out some hand built stuff. One of the surprisingly nice hand built bikes was by Hartley Cycles.

If I want to see new bikes, I go to my local LBS, loads there for free and close to home.

 

[numbnuts]

Call me a coward, but I wouldn't go to any larger gathering now.

Why not?

What if you want to see something 'obscure' that perhaps isn't available in a shop (locally)

I don't do "obscure" so not a problem for me.

How dull

I've never been to one before so I'm quite looking forward to it.The only thing I'm not looking forward to is the horrible drive along the M6 :=((

 

[huwsparky]

Some bloody weirdos on here

 

[Inertia]

if its no good you can go to the EGX show next door

 

[Crackle]

I'm tempted to go on Sunday but 17.50 a ticket is a bit off-putting. How much is it on the door?
