Just so i dont scare anyone else by accidently bumping into them at the NEC, just to let you lot know i'll still be down there working the Fri, Sat, Sun shift as well later in the week.

If anyones passing stand C14/C15 feel free to pop down say hi.
Beers or hot chocolate would be even more appreciated! Razz

Although forgive me if I try to convince you to buy a £5k Busa turbo nitrous 700bhp engine upgrade. Very Happy

Dont miss the arlen ness jacuzzi girls like i did Crying or Very sad

Dunno about cheapest place for boots, but look around everywhere first(may save some money)

GSXR1000 Is nice(new one) Go in the TT simulator for £3 is awesome!! Very Happy

(near the Yamaha stand) Go on mini moto's! Make sure you see the KTM Stand!

Busters accessories has cheap stuff!! J&S has good textiles!!

Bike parking seemed well organised, just follow the direction that the stewards send you!! Car parking is also good, free bus in from your car park!

I'm going on Saturday with my parents, whoooo a family day out. Rolling Eyes

At least it gives me a chance to sit on some bikes, but I don't think we will be sticking around long, might buy some waterproofs and some boots. Smile

Just got back! Absolutely brilliant and I spent lots of money, well, my parents did, christmas pressies. Wink

It was quite amusing this morning when we got to the car park, the amount of people who got out of their cars and put their leathers on. I nearly pissed myself when I saw this. Laughing

Wow! It was busy! I could barely move, but I sat on loads of bikes today! I sat on a Triumph Daytona, highlight of my day!

Once we finally got round the halls we started looking at bike clothing and stuff. I went straight to the J&S stand as it was recommended by quite a few people and I ended up buying some Sidi boots for £99. I'm pretty sure they are good boots, but don't worry, I won't be wearing them on my moped. Laughing

After this we went to the Busters stand and I bought some Girtex Trousers, so that I finally have some waterproofs for my legs at £40. Not bad I thought.

Then I went to this other clothing stall and I bought a Honda Racing fleece and a beenie to go with it. Looks pretty smart if I must say so myself. £35 in total. Neutral

After this we walked around for a little while, must say I was very impressed with the Micron cans at the Micron stall. Then the very pinnacle of the day, taking a photo of the two lasses on the YZF R1, whilst they were looking at me mint! Very Happy

Pictures of my new boots and the girls...

Just got back myself.
A good day out - spent more than I really should have Sad

All those boys toys you just can't do without Very Happy

Morning was better as more chance to sit on the bikes, afternoon was a bit hectic with everyone buying stuff.

Saw some of the girls on show there and strangly I did manage to see some of the bikes.
Liked the Yamaha MT01 although can't see it as an everyday bike.

Will start saving for next year.

I sat on the MT-01 after 3 solid looking, but short arsed, Harley/Buell riders. Not being/looking like one myself, they just looked at me & started laughing. I nearly told them to fuck off, bald-headed cunts.
