You’ll know what we mean when we say a proper bike show , Eicma makes the Scottish bike show look pretty insignificant

I moan about it every year but still go. Who doesn't want to pay £20 to rattle round a freezing cold shed, complaining about how shite it is then paying £2 million for a burger and chips?

It's utter rubbish, but will be there as I am every year, with bike. Show is shite but the banter with mates is still worth it.

Check the dates on the helmets if that’s what you are maybe looking for , a friend I was with bought a new Shoei as it was on sale and after a few weeks discovered it was over 4 years old already

I'll probably go if the weather's decent take the bike. It's no great shakes though, but as an event to 'kick' of the spring riding season for those fair weather bikers gives you a date to get the thing taxed and insured.

The amazing Easter egg run used to be that event for many but it's no longer sadly ..
