The Mrs youngest nipper and myself went yesterday, 1.8 mile tail back waiting to get in  :bug_eye I was stunned it was such a big show. Crowd really friendly and polite and we even took the dogs in.
Mrs spent ages looking for a ideal bike to get me back riding and came up with a CX500 maggot, she thought the seat and bar position was good  :icon_wink:
My 16 year old daughter has decided she is going to be a "Trials" rider until she is old enough to get a full licence. She kept on asking me how the guys got their bikes to look so good as she want's to do a classic, then one of the old guys explained what he did to one of his police bikes,

Over all a great show and I will get the nipper to load her photo's

cheers Spud  :thumbsup
