Saw a few Uly's about, one was on a Harley Club stand :shock:

Another rode by me as I was leaving, say 4 ish, the guy was wearing a white or light grey camo jacket.

Not a tuber in sight.

I did see Jill mooching about just after I got there, but I was suffering from a severe case of Buell bladder so I was on a loo mission. Sorry I didn't come say hi.

Always a good way to spend a few hours and it felt good to get back out again.

:sun:

Got back a couple of hours ago from our extended weekend taking in the Bristol Classic show and visiting friends in Porlock.....what a great weekend weather-wise!! So wish I had been on my bike.

The Bristol Classic show was slightly smaller than usual....a couple of the stands Ade wanted to check out were missing....normally there is a guy with loads of cables, and Hawkshaws (?spelling?) were missing too. Shame as he needs to get some cables. Will just have to look on line.

Sorry we missed you Kev (Onanist). Were you on your bike?? Didn't see any Firebolts. Saw a blue Uly parked outside when we arrived and also saw another one on the Harley stand, but didn't see anyone next to these bikes, so you had a lucky escape and managed to avoid being accosted by me... lOl

Hi Jill
A couple of friends went to the NEC Trade show (wholesales) a few weeks ago plenty of stands over many halls BUT VERY,VERY few Buyers , after talking to some wholesaler’s , whom were paying many thousands of pounds , in fact tens of thousands for a pitch , some were saying that they would not be attending in the future
sad as it is nice to see and touch before you buy , but looks like "on line " has claimed a few more victims

You should've gone to the Off Road show in Telford last weekend. It was packed with people and lots of rare parts for obsolete bikes lOl

An excellent day out 8-)
