Guest Posted November 4, 2011 Posted November 4, 2011 After petrol, ticket, the price of a pint and a sandwich...and the crowds - everything would have to be a quid or less to entice me to go. Year after year the feedback from visitors has been dire. I just dont get it, personally. It's like Asda putting on a display of spam juggling and charging you a fiver to get in the store when all you wanted was a packet of Jammy Dodgers and to check out the price of mince. I've just won a pair of tickets How things change with a freebie ticket lol..... thought you would be giving them away! Quote
Guest Posted November 6, 2011 Posted November 6, 2011 Just bought my ticket..Will be either Sat the 19th or Sunday 20th.I will be driving so if anyone needs a lift in between Ipswich and NEC let me know. Quote

Mawsley Posted November 15, 2011 Posted November 15, 2011 I'm going on the 20th By 'eck chief! So is Guy Martin. And me. Quote
JonR Posted November 16, 2011 Posted November 16, 2011 Hey Guys, might be going, just seeing if i can book time off work (being a chef sucks) but i get some money at the beginning of january for more gear. are there any events like this around that time?????Cheers Quote
Bonniebird Posted November 17, 2011 Posted November 17, 2011 There's a few events around in January/feb becase it is an otherwise slack time for dealers - depends on where you are. There's the London Motorcycle show and MCN Manchester in January for a start. Quote

Theboyparker Posted November 20, 2011 Posted November 20, 2011 Just waiting to go through the entrance Quote
Ratser Posted November 21, 2011 Posted November 21, 2011 me and barry have just came back,long day with some great stalls,sooo much temptation to spend lots of money,to any girls that are going make sure you wear comfy shoes Was there on Saturday too Bumble, but didn't see you.That Ducati 1199 looks nice from one side and from the other it's a bit Aprilia Dorsoduro Royal Enfield Norton Commando GSXR 1000, compared to the other 1000cc sports bikes, this has to be the most basic looking of the lot. And the J&S stand, having all Arai and Shoei lids for £100, despite what the ticket said.Pity they didn't have the one I was looking for. And then a night out in Birmingham. My head hurt after that.

Mawsley Posted November 21, 2011 Posted November 21, 2011 Did it Sunday and I'm still at a loss to understand why anyone would pay money to go.It's like being charged admission to go into Bluewater or the like - only worse because you're also charged parking and rip-off prices for food & drink.Days gone by, there used to be stacks of free stuff to bag up from trips. This weekend there was next to nothing being given away - if I'd paid a turn up £19 fee to get in I'd have been mighty peed off with the lack of return from a glorified window-shopping exercise.We had an enjoyable day out, don't get me wrong...but not one worth paying a stack of money for.
