This is not a dig at you but I hear guys saying they won't go one year because they went last year etc ..
There are ALWAYS new things to see, every year .. without fail.
Oh yeah, and the totty is new too!!

Glad I went on Wed, nice and quiet (ish)  . shopping list included: Panniers (leather) Tail pack (leather) Waist coat (can start collecting patches now. ) Cool dude shades!  Autocom intercom (After much arm twisting from parnter)  First time my partner had been, as she is very new to this game (but makes up for it in enthusiasium!), she really enjoyed it, wanting to buy the whole show, or at least thats what it felt like!!!!
