OJWKTM and I went yesterday. I thought it was one of the best bike shows I've been too lately. The only down side was the lack of scantily clad ladies ;D
Lots of really nice machines with really nice prices, €8000 for a 490 Maico anyone? Oh well how about a 250 TLR for £4250?
We saw a good number of Dorset Classic members up there, one of whom had bought a new dog bowl
Also on show was the brand new Greeves Trials bike. Unveiled for the first time. I hope it's a preproduction model. It looked like the British bikes of old- poor build quality (ducks from brick bats). The front light was a household low voltage lamp!
Graham Noyce was there(!) and so was Joel Robert wandering around being stopped every few yards for people wanting there photo taken with him.
All in all a good day out.
