Most of us have to go UP to the NEC

Only problem with riding up I always found, was you cant buy anything as it never fits on the bike, I think most tend to drive up.

I for one will defo be going

yes i will be going, but like you say difficult to carry any large objects on a bike so we always go by car

haha yeah fair point speedy, didnt think about the directions lol.

yeah i see what u mean, although i can't afford any large items so i might take the bike

you reckon its worth paying the extra and going on preview day?

nope only worth it to the organizers

speedy wouldnt you be better off going to the trade expo show in january now your a high flying buisnessman

Yes im going just to see the girls in lycra Colin don't forget your camera

haha yeah camera is a must i think, not sure what day i'll go on, although being a poor student type probably the normal day, to save a few quid

I went to NEC on trade day last year and there was loads of room and no over crowding, got some great photos

We went to Expo this year and it was rubbish. Hardly any maufactures there. NEC is deffinitly better.

Or is trade expo a compleatly different show?

trade expo is completely different mike, it was at stoneleigh but moves to the nec next year and its for trade only so you can see new stuff and get your deals,its the place colin and gary would go too

the bike show is worth a look but i'd be suprised if theres any bargains to be had with the price of having a stall there. worth going just for the girls i'd say

Some pictures from last year

Might go at the last moment on a weekday

I could be up for going as I missed it last year. Although I'll be moving to Salisbury that weekend

Perhaps I'll become a member of South Bikers? Doesn't have the same ring to it somehow!!

There's about 6 of us going up on the 24th.. as it's my 43rd on the 25th.. figure THAT one out!
We should be going up by bike, but if not, the two cars will be...
Any bikes going past Bridgwater, to the NEC on the 24th, then drop us a line?
