Brenda and I went on Monday and were very dissapointed. Having gone to this show for years it was always a great day out. This time, however, we arrived about 10:45 and were gone by 13:30 having seen everything.
We managed to get a RiDE recommended Knox backpack for Brenda and that was it - we did save a £1 though.
Strangest thing was talking to one of the Infinity guys about some leisure Alpinestar boots I'm after. Discovered his branch is in Holborn, a couple of hundred metres from my office. He gave me his card, took my details and suggested I call in to see him after the show and he would do me a good deal at the store. Also promised to get me a summer jacket that I'm after.
It's always great talking to the stall holders ... the salesman on the Suzuki stand was desperate to get me a test ride on the GSX1000 ... very friendly and enthusiastic ... but on the whole they do come across as the whole show being a big chore for them.
Anyway ... if you go ... (try to) enjoy!
