Me. It's only ten minutes away and probably won't cost me £25 to park like it did at earls court.

i'm going on Saturday, taking sarnies and a flask, not paying for the overpriced "refreshments" if they are anything like the rubbish at earls court

will there be a huge forum gathering and love in at the STW stand?

Hopefully be there on Sunday. Love walking round looking at bright shiny things, kicking tires and asking " how fast will it go mister ?". ( I'm 37 btw 😳 )

Good to see secure bike parking offered, even better if there was a reduction in price for people ariving on bike.
Still not decided yet, need to plan a nice cheap train journey from deepest Surrey unless someone who's driving wants to split petrol costs 🙂

You're [i]paying[/i] to go to a trade show?

Bizarre. I just register for the trade days, then you can use the same ticket all weekend long. Easy peasy.

And free. 😀

Not going cos I can't be arsed travelling to Birmingham. Gonna wait for the London one instead.

In the trade then? they are trying to tighten up scoundrels getting in for free and are asking for proof of ID of where you work.

🙄

wow £12 - break the bank!

The test track is 1km and there is a road one as well - demo bikes as well etc etc - looks good and this time you can take your wallet 😉

I thought its not perm at the NEC in Brummy - no longer in London?
