Anyone going? Advanced tickets are £4 cheaper until Thursday only.

Provided my wife gets home from offshore Thursday (weather is pretty poor off Shetland just now) I'll be there on Saturday.
Plan to leave home and travel down through Dundee/Perth early in the morning.

Pray for :sun: , First show I'll have made in three years :!:

I'll be going, but not until Sunday - I hope it's better than the last three years, the best bit last year was the wall of death :o

I'm just glad I'll get this year,
but then again, all flights from Scatsta got cancelled today, so wife and doggie sitter might not make it in time :(

Do they make sidecars big enough for 5 dogs :?: :!:

Crap crap crap crap, and crap :x
Ok, it snowed, doesn't help, but to still charge full ticket price when absolutely none of the outside shows, stunts or features was on sucked butt big time.

Only saving grace was the Area 51 guys with some stunning custom bikes, and that I got to chase HD and Drysdales M/Cycles about my duff headlamp!

Next year I am only going to shows in England and in the Sun............

I say it every year but this time I mean it, it was was pants and I'm not going back! It really does get worse each year, this time it was half the size with very little outside. I really wanted to see some quality textile kit but sadly no such luck, plenty of new bikes on show, which I guess is the main point ;)

The price of the ticket and parking was a bit cheeky - overall, pants :cry:
