Went to the bike show today and must say that all of the mates I went with said that they were disappointed.

There didnt seem to be as much there as previous years especially the accesories and clothing stands.

Also not as many babes as before 

What did you think if you went.

[Andy J]

I think Bob's letching on Saturday probably caused a mass dolly babe resignation 

and yes the accesories were disappointing but then again given hard trading times and the costs of a stand at the show I'm not surprised really 

[Fat Tony]

My company usually takes a stand at a show at the NEC in January.

For 09 though the price almost doubled from the 08 rate, which in itself was hugely up on the 07 rate

And they ask you to sign up for next years event at the end of this years - so I doubt the bike show 2009 will have ANY exhibitors

but you are rite,,these kind of shows are some thing you only need to do every 3/4 yrs,,,,,,,other wise nothing seams to have changed.......

[Andy J]

I also spent all the saved travelling money on beer    yep got the train too and it was far cheaper than driving    The show was nothing special, I really went along to meet the guys from the site  and prob wn't go next year either 

[ian1970]

i agree it was nowhere near as good as last year..
good job i got cheap tickets otherwise i wouldnt be too happy paying top dollar for the pleasure

[zx10r bob]

cheers for the beers

[jonah]

went yesterday, for the first time in a couple of years, very dissapointing to be honest, in fact after only 4 hrs i got bored and left, picked up some nice berik kangaroo 1 peice leathers at a decent price but apart from that i was glad to get away. wont be going next year.

Looks like everyone feels the same    NEC

[nuddy]

I'm currently working on the NEC arena, so for me its easy to go and have a look around and free parking, hoping to have a look in Friday morning 

I'll let you know my thoughts

PS - Watched Paul Weller practise the other Friday
