a different cockup this year, I went in the gate Ive always gone in only to be confronted by guys asking for money for the ticket? Ive always parked up then gone to the booths, but no, this year they decided to get people to pay at this gate coming in, so get off the bike get the CC out, ahh, the wireless CC machine aint working so he now wants me to go to the other gate and park up as usual, by now the queue is getting large so I managed to raid me pockets for the cash to save anymore hassle.
Last year I had to ride through 6 inches of mud to park up, what is it with bike shows?

Anyway, the crowds got the better of me after about 4 hours and off I went, what with a Harley almost rear ending me on the way there it was an eventful day, but still fun. Highlight of the day was an Old Boy sharing a bench with me while I was having lunch and having a chat, he'd started riding in 1949 and now owns a BMW F800ST and was quite chuffed he'd seen 140 on the clock last year over in Germany, he was 80 later this year!! He said something really funny about the war and worrying, but i'll have to think about as I cant quite remember how he said it, jeez Im only 54 and the memorys going.

a different cockup this year,

Unfortunately I didn't make it to the show choosing to ride to Newton Abbott in Devon instead to visit my brother and family for the day. I arrived back to the pub/camp in Somerset just in time to have a couple of beers before closing.
My friends who went to the show said similar to you that it was far too crowded.
My Tiger clocked up 12k on route home so I dropped the oil etc. once home. The brake problem that arose I posted on this site and got good advice on.
