NEC Bike Show: who's going when? - SV650.org

Brettus · 08-10-08, 03:17 PM

It seemed to work well last year so thought I'd try it again to help organise who is going when and people can sort out meet ups from there.

Can't wait personally heh

Apologies if it's a bit early for some but I'm sure the thread can be resurrected closer to the time if needs be

Thinking about going on the Monday, not sure whats going on yet though.

Paul the 6th · 08-10-08, 04:56 PM

im tempted to do what i did last year and stop in a travel inn. Its 2 hours from where i live, so rather than having an early morning rush to get there and missing an early start, I had a few drinks & a nice meal the night before, got up about 9 the next morning, shower & breakfast before wandering over for 10am start. If you get in early enough you can get a test ride on the demo bikes

anyone fancy it maybe?

Should be the Monday for me. Though I am still trying to figure out how I am meant to get down there without using the bike (I have no car licence!)

Harrogate.

Need to see what's the go with my Dad aswell. Hopefully he will be more mobile then so should be coming aswell.

I'm on the look out for some 1piece leathers whilst I am there. Anyone else looking for something inparticular or just impulse buying?

impulse buying for me

last year I bought my arai tour x3 helmet (same as ewan and chandler use but with the moto-x peak removed to make it look like stig helmet), accompanying tinted visor & iam training pack (cant remember if i bought owt else?). Managed to get a test ride on a k7 SV s... 3 weeks later I bought my current bike

I was just asking since I noticed you're in the same county as me (im down the road in acomb, york). I'll be going down in the car and if anyone's up for the night over thing then great, bonus, if not, tempted to try get a bit of a road trip going in my car & anyone else who's taking car from round 'ere
