    ....dang, missed it this year: and this would have been one of the few where I actually needed to go, as distinct from wanted to go, to get bits.

    I really, really like that new Guzzi California - not the black one, the ice-blue one........

    Ode To The Motorist

    “And my existence, while grotesque and incomprehensible to you, generates funds to the exchequer. You don't want to acknowledge that as truth because, deep down in places you don't talk about at the Green Party, you want me on that road, you need me on that road. We use words like freedom, enjoyment, sport and community. We use these words as the backbone of a life spent instilling those values in our families and loved ones. You use them as a punch line. I have neither the time nor the inclination to explain myself to a man who rises and sleeps under the tax revenue and the very freedom to spend it that I provide, and then questions the manner in which I provide it. I would rather you just said "thank you" and went on your way. Otherwise I suggest you pick up a bus pass and get the ********* ********* off the road”

    Its on until next Sunday. Not my thing but I saw Shark lids for £50!! Lots of decent waterproofs, leathers etc for small enough money.
    My favourite bike of the show was the 400cc Peregrine. Reminded me of the LCs and YPVS' that we used to blast around on.

    there's some really good bargains at it. decent helmets and leather jackets for £30-£40 and all of the latest gear is easily €50+ cheaper than any online shops. the best thing to do is don't buy anything, wait till 3-4pm and the prices start dropping.

    Just back from Birmingham. First visit. Savage bikes and great bargains on gear. The only bad point was the stand exhibiting a small capacity two seater car as an alternative to bikes which can be driven by 16 year olds on a moped licence in the U.K. I thought the idea would be to promote biking rather than cars.
    Heres a few ropey iphone photos.
