It’s simple. They don’t want you to come on your bike. They want you to come in a car. You can’t buy a load of new gear and carry it home on the bike.

ok just to add a little fun to the nec ......

a game!!! at the nec you will find all kinds of tat!!,anything from a t shirt to a revolutionary new piece of kit ,ten years later still laying in the garage or spare room in the same bag waiting to be used !.....your objeective is to find the worst piece of tat at the nec on sat 11/12/21...and bring to to a certain stand at 3pm ...prize for the worst piece of tat!! the worserer the betterer!!!

there are two reasons for this ....1st to have a years bragging rights on your terrible taste .....2nd reason ....what a great way to strike up a conversation !!!!

I went a few years ago and thought exactly the same thing but... The arena show was mind blowing - worth the entry fee for that alone - hope to be there this year too.

I really do miss the race transporters from the likes of Fowlers and Dennis Trollope Racing.

I'll probably be going on the Tuesday as that's classed as a day for people in the trade to attend.

In UK Clubsport magazine that landed yesterday (a magazine mainly focused on club racing in the UK) was an article saying you need to show your Covid status on entry to the show.

Yeah the emails and social media from them have stated this also, but if you'll be checked is another question as few events I've been to now and not been asked yet I had it ready.

this is true you have to show covid status to get in.. But this can be just a negative lateral flow test. And as mentioned above.. They sell them on the day for £12

Went today, considering the recent covid restrictions and the effect on global economy, those on the stands looked pleased to be there.

Surprisingly good numbers at the BSA, Norton and Royal Enfield stands. The other thing that caught my eye was the number of electric bikes, considering I will need a commuter that can do 44 miles a day, cheap to run and weather resistant I would consider one, if I want to munch miles I'll take the big bike that holds 5.5 gal of fuel.
