Thumbs up London Bike Show - Excel

My wife and I really enjoyed our day out at the London bike show.

The event was small, but well worth a visit. It was good to chat to Antonye whislt we visited the DSC stand. Looking forward to our trackday!

Cold and snowy on the way home though - in the car!

Best regards,

James

I thought it was a really good show too. Did you manage to get a go on the electric bikes on the gymkhana course? Was a double first for me that as have been interested in the gymkhana format for a while and am fascinated by electric bikes (yes I think they are the future eventually). I managed to spend far far more than I intended too lol and came home with some decent winter riding kit and a few other bits

Thumbs up

Great to see everyone - I'm just a bit knackered today having spent the last 4 days on my feet and talking to people!

Thursday and Friday were very slow, but Saturday more than made up for it. We thought it was going to be dead on Sunday given the reports that the country would grind to a halt, but it turned out to be just as busy as Saturday!

We gave away nearly 500 flyers over the 4 days, talked to loads of people who didn't know there were such things as Ducati owners clubs, let alone knew about the DSC, and plenty that wanted to come on the factory trip, trackday and even a few wanting more info on DD racing!

We've made some good contacts as well, and we have a couple of really exciting offers which we will be letting you know about over the next couple of weeks, and more events to come.
