That's why I like it If I want to see race bikes, I go to a race. If I want to see bikes for sale, I go to a bike seller. But when I want to get an Optimate for £25 I go to a bike show

Whos Been? - What did you see and what did you buy???

Contemplating a PC3 or Rear Shock or some waterproof kit? Is it worth the effort?

Went today was disappointed really, The Ducati 1098 was on show in a line up of new bikes. the BSB pit lane was quite poor with only Nori's old Yamaha and Ben Bostroms Honda and a few privateer bikes. If you were looking for riding gear or a few bolt ons it was probably quite good not so many of the tatty old sweat shop leathers. If you want to go to see Moto GP bikes top BSB or WSB bikes then forget it save your money an buy a ticket to the Brands BSB or WSB or Donnington Park for the GP.

Thanks VFR400...thats made up my mind to go to EXCEL next weekend then...well that and the fact that MCN have sent me a complimentary ticket
I'm looking forward to seeing whether or not having the bigger venue will have spurred them on to a better show one can only hope

I'm going tomorrow as it would be rude not to from where I live. Not really after anything to buy,but it will be good to see the new Duke in the flesh.
Having said that I do need a pair of boots and gloves so it could be worthwhile.
