I was thinking of leaving Oxford around 10:30, will see what the others want to do and see which car we are going in

Had a great day out, not that there many bargains but as a social event it was great, caught up with so many people and spotted a few celebs from the bike world
I drove up with Trudi, Kev and Dallas for company and then bumped into the following

Craig & Mandy
Gary, Bradders and Kim
Steve Mason, Andy Pike and brother Adam
Harriet Ridley & Ian Coby
Geoff Spencer
Nelly
Mike Winters
Dave Reiley
John Hackett
Nick Ward
Tim Macabee
Chil, Debbie & Bobbie
Chris
Mark

Steve Caffyn of CSC Racing who I hope to see in the paddock a few times this year as he helps out a 848 entrant.
Plus a whole crowd of others from around our way that either raced bikes or work with bikes (hey it was trade day, what do I expect)

Sorry if I've forgotton anybody

just got to sort out that bike now

really poor show tho; wouldnt want to spend much money on going there, as always the banter makes the tenner worthwhile

Will that be a DD bike or a race 848
I know who I'm putting my money on for a few wins in the 848 series, he may even win it

As for the bike show this was neat although it needs the bigger LC4 engine

I went yesterday. Dispite the negativity this year I enjoyed the day on the whole. All the riders I met were very friendly and willing to chat and sign.
A Tip:- If you're looking to buy MotoGP tickets for Silverstone early and you're going to the show anyway don't buy them on line buy them there. 20% off.
Other good deal was a four month subssriction to the Visordown Mag (used to be Two wheels, I think) for a tenner and I got a an Autoglym bike Valet kit thrown in.
