Only if you promise to put down a deposit on something while we're there.

I’ll be going tomorrow and to my surprise my 13 year old wanted to join me!

I will be having my two year old with me and two of my friends.

I think the kid might quite like bikes. Massive grins as he climbed on Suzuki dirt bike ha.
Sat on a 1100sx which was something I’d been looking to change to. Comfy but was surprised the pegs were higher then the 650.
Also threw a leg over the gen3 busa. Really surprised how comfy that felt…!
Not really much in the way of bargains though, most things I was checking out were about the same as store prices except for the random no name brands but the sheer volume of kit meant it was good to see and try things not all stores stock.
Most shocking? I only bought a coffee, fully expected to get myself in trouble with the missus

I don't know if I bumped into any OCUK guys today. But I talked to a couple of people both at the booths and fellow people who were attending. Got to see Chris Northover in person.
Did the dynamo run on the HD stall, which was fun. Was told you will have to leave your expectations about smoothness behind since you ride a Blackbird lol. The MV Agusta Super Veloce 1000 Serie Oro was the best bike for me in terms of looks and poster creds. The Norton Commando Carbon was second for me in looks.
Enjoyed it, my 2 year old enjoyed it even more.
