I know it was trade only yesterday, but was anyone off here there, and what is special?
Off down there later 🙂

I'll be cycling over there from the city at about 12. Quite looking forward to it as, for a change, there's actually some specific stuff I want to look at

On the way there now! Haven't a clue what's good or bad though, sorry!

Best thing at the show - Rachel Atherton even with her arm still in a sling - must have been a very nasty dislocation 😯
lots of electric bikes, Contador made an appearance.
And then wooden rims! WOODEN RIMS!!!
Defo worth the trip!

Her arm still in a sling? Probably means she's had another op or another injury then as I think on one of those Atherton Project videos they said she was riding.

There was lots to look at from a personal perspective, too many fixies though even if some of them were gorgeous. Good to see BMX there in numbers. And of course Emily.

From a trade point of view other than BMX there was little I'd be looking to sell, found a few bits though like those plastic round bike hangers, Brooks trouser clips, and some rather neat Lezyne CO2 inflators.

Still managed to spend £5k of someone else's money at the show in orders though 😉

plastic round bike hangers,

they looked interesting, but only for skinny tubed steel road bikes?

Nope could get another version that fits round the seatpost instead.
