Default 2008 NEC Bike Show

Howdy All

Just wandered who might be going to the 2008 NEC bike show. I know its early days. But heh ho

Me and Lily have decided to go. What day would be better......29th November or 6th? We can make either Saturday but wandered which would be better for deals or does it not make much difference.

Didn't go last year, won't go this year. TBH, I think it's gone right downhill recently. Most of the stalls sell the same old tat, although there are bargains to be had if you're lucky.

Doubt it. Would now be an expensive day out. £50 in fuel, probably £10 to park, and then what, £15ish to get in. Once you have been to one bike show, that should do you for a couple of years imho.

Whatever you do, dont go at a weekend.

Unfortunately not, will be touring China for 17 days and then 4 in Hong Kong, a good reason not to go i think, but theres always next year.

We're going up again, think it's Friday 5th, would never consider going on a weekend, too many kiddies running about & climbing over stuff, bad enough with the 20+yr old kids.
