Never mind - perhaps you can lose him for a bit around the the Harley stand? :wink:

I'm going with 3 friends (yes, I have that many :lol: ) on Thursday 11th.

*Derailed*.....

Seems to be quite a few people going on the 11th... I think a meetup at the suzuki stand could be in order...

First Saturday with "The Lads"....

Following weekend with the family. My boy is 16 this spring and hankering for a 50cc sports machine (if there really is such a thing) Top of his list was the RS50, but it's showing it's age, then it was the Reiju RS2, but now it's the latest version of the Derbi GPR50

2 years ago flew down to bristol and ex picked me up on the blackbird (wasnt ex at the time) and we rode up the next morning while filtering thru the huge q of traffic noticed at least 7 cars parked up on the kerb with people in the boot putting leathers on and not just normal leathers but one piece leathers, why? we wandered round inside with our leathers on sweating as its really warm. last year went in the car and wore "normal" clothes much better adn could buy a few things.

Oh' I'll be going, not sure when yet,probably on a weekend though.

Just wanna look at the gorgeous new models..... Hopefully they smile more than last years crop of miserable wenches..... Oh yeah and check out some bikes too...

I just found out that I won a ticket, so will probably go on the 11th, if that's when the majority of people are gonna be there.

I'm going on the 5th.
I hope those going later don't want to see any Aprilias as I want them ALL
(well all the SL Falcos and RSV Milles :love: anyway - and why can't I have a Futura ?)

Doesn't look like anyone else will be there, so there'll be lots of bikes to play with.

Mr Site Sponsor Sir, would it be possible for you to put another pole on for the days people are going and a time to meet at the Suzuki stand

Want a smart-ass answer or the real one? :wink:

Either will do nicely. :lol:

Jabba
19-10-04, 08:38 PM
Either will do nicely. :lol:

Smart ass answer is (rather predictably) "because you're not" :lol:

Real reason - to avoid the Friday and weekend crowds and because that's the only day that one of mates can go.

jonboy
19-10-04, 09:56 PM
Ah. Well the last two years I found the crowds quite acceptable on the Friday but I do get your point. I shall ponder...

Going on preview day I think.

Viney
20-10-04, 07:58 AM
Again, going on the 7th.

Went on final day last year, and was quite acceptable as well.

What you have to plan for is that EVERYONE has the same idea about going during the week to avoid the crowds. This is good, because it does spread out the crowds

At least a hairdryer is capable of blowing at least something into the weeds.......... :lol:

Why go on the scoots? Coz one of the three friends that I'm going with isn't a biker and it's our way of trying to tempt him onto two wheels..............oh, and coz it's fun and it's free :lol:

Don't think we'll get him on the mini-motos though :wink:

It'll be interesting to hear how long you have to queue for and how many of them really should have been back at school.
