Who's going (May 21st/22nd)? What are you hoping to see / purchase?

We'll be going on the Sat or Sun, but I'm not really on the look out for anything in particular. I just like looking at bikes and bike related stuff. Having said that, I'll probably end up coming back with more than I can carry Laughing

I'll be there, but I'll mostly be working. However, I will also be on the lookout for a decent pair of pants!

Yup, I'll be making the 300 odd mile trip down and taking friday off work to travel down Wink

Don't REALLY know what I'm after. Could do with jacket, trousers and boots to be honest, but we'll see.

Hi

We will be going, but not sure which day.

Nothing I am desperate for really, but I could be tempted with some summer gloves and some new moulded ear plugs but with some ear phones in them.

Probably spend some time crawling round the autojumble getting all sorts of things that might be useful in the future.

Might try and get some reasonable tools to make up a tool kit to carry to track days, rather than my current habit of filling the boot of the car with half the tools in the garage.

All the best

Keith

Hi

Chances of getting pulled are small, but the consequences of getting pulled or having an accident could be very severe.

I would also say that keeping off the M1 from Donington would be a better route. The A14 has cameras on it and is a favourite for speed traps, and the A605 (from the A14 up to Peterborough) is even worse.

All the best

Keith

Wouldn't risk it on motorway. As said before the penalty if stopped outweigh any advantage. I like to take a chance same as the next but when the odds aren't in your favour give it a miss.

Where are you meeting up? From where you are the way to the BMF is straight down the A1 (see map I put in your other thread about getting pulled).
