Anyone going?
what are you going for? i quite liked the look of some brands that will be showing, esp Indy Fab 🙂 not sure if its worth the trip from yorkshire though
Never been before, was hoping people's opinions would give me some idea what to expect.
Going Friday, and taking customers though it's nothing to do with my line of work.
Ones a clubman and has 5k to splurge out. Another one rode across America last year on a Surly he bought from a previous bike show.
Looking forward to it.
Planet X/On-One are going, and I'm off on Sunday, having got in from a week in China on the Saturday night. So that should be fun.
We'll have the new El Guapo 29 🙂
Last one I went to was aeons ago but am going this year as I am fairly local. Doesn't seem to be a demo track but still looking for a new bike so will go and see whats around. Probably go in Thursday PM.
can you purchase stuff there?
my colleague is going - i got lumped with the adventure travel show a couple of weeks later... i wanted to see bikes 🙁
(and the on one fat bike)
i'll be there thursday 🙂
What day are you going Steve? How you getting there? You know where this is going eh! 😉
I'm going Friday, didnt realise you could buy stuff, nor that planet x were there.
My C Card will be quivering at road stuff i don't have, and I bet you £50 there's a shiny road bike promising to make me a fast as Mr schleck.... :-/
Amos sent you a text.
I went last year. Wished I'd gone for a ride instead... which is what I'll do this time.

I wouldn't get too excited to be honest, not really a bike show but some bike related stuff pushed into the corner.
If you like massive millions of pounds boats, then you'll love the event...
Sorry to be a downer on it, this was just my experience of it last year. Thankfully I didn't have to pay.
as long as there are a few mtbs it'll be a step up on the cycleshow!
S'ok, I now what to expect as I have a mate in the trade - who's company have pulled their stand this year.
Its more day out for mrs kryton and kryton jnr really as we are London so its easy for us to get to....
Going with me boy, bike show, boat show and the outdoor show as well all good fun.
Went last year with my dad we spent half the day jumping around 40million quids worth of boats, ace day loved it.
It really isn't a 'bike show'. The entire south hall and one half of the north hall is taken up with boats and people walking around with jumpers wrapped around shoulders. Whats left of the other half of that hall is mainly outdoor stuff with some bike bits thrown in.
Maybe it's different this year. If you live in London and have nothing else to do then maybe worth a wander over. If you're from further afield I really wouldn't waste your money and time.
is there a bar selling beer? if yes then bikes and beers works for me 🙂

No, but if Madison, On ONe / Planet X, MBUK, Bike radar an others are about they'll be enough to look at.
Hoping to get over there as its very close to me
Looking at buying one of these for charity road rides
