Unlike two weeks ago there's no snow in the forecast so we're finally going to make it to Berwick this weekend :P....details here

Happily our rearranged visit now coincides with the Scottish Motorcycle Show in Edinburgh - details here. We plan to visit the show on Saturday. If any UKBEG members are out and about at the show give us a buzz/text on 0792 626 5582 and we'll meet up.

Clive - I think it's called sods law :( ....

We've never been to the Scottish Motorcycle Show, although I expect it's much like any other bike show, but with a Scottish flavour :D.....

There looks to be a good selection of modern and classic bike stands and also a live action area. The Scottish branch of the Moto Guzzi Club GB have a stand in the club section and we've arranged to meet up with some friends there.

In a rare moment of disorganisation we find we're 160 miles away from our mobile phone so we may not hear it if it rings. That's what happens when you're rushing to get away before the worst of the Friday afternoon traffic...

Nice to meet you two again today, you meet the nicest people in the foyer.
Some crackin bikes in the classics hall, otherwise :roll:
Got a pair off boots ordered from Altberg and some old ones taken back for resole, so worth the trip.
Had a good look at the KTM 1190 Adventure, mmm, lots of money perhaps worth waiting a year or so.
Regards.

Sadly no one is doing the awards this year at least no one has volunteered yet. Last year was Diggers last one in presenting them

Scottish Motorcycle Show today. It was snowing ;) A fairly expensive day and I saw my next bike - ditching the Multistrada and getting a Hyperstrada. It's much more Clive size - not sure when it'll happen, but it will :yup:
