Me and the mrs will be going, i'm hoping to get her some bits i.e lid and jacket etc so unfortunatley probably take the car so i can bring stuff home, but if the reality of a good bargain isn't real at all then i'll be very dissapointed.

I went up today with a couple of mates, pretty boring really, stunts were good but not worth a tenner to get in IMO. Didn't seem to be that many stands either.
I bought some gloves and a tank pad.

I went today :D Pretty much agree that it wan't very good but, having been for the past few years I knew that anyways. Just used it as an excuse for a rideout.

Really impressed with the KTM RC8 and the Ducati 848 - must try to get some test rides :D :twisted: :D . Also impressed by the BMW HP2 but no way would I blow £15k on one (and apparantly BMW are still making a loss selling them at that!!)
