Anyone been to the London Bike Show today? Is it worth contemplating a visit?

London Bike show?
You really need only two tools: WD-40 and duct tape. If it doesn't move and it should, use WD-40. If it moves and shouldn't, use the tape.

Nope, I ain't 
Re: London Bike show?
Bit late now, but I went yesterday.
It was very very crowded and hot with bike gear on, but a okay show, quite a bit bigger than it was even about 5 years ago.
I couldn't even find anything to buy
Star of show for me, although I wouldn't want one, R9T Caferacer .... looks better in the flesh than the pics. Too impractical for me though.
All in all I still hanker for the old Ally Pally Road and Race show days, now that was a proper show.
No problem overspending the Christmas money there

I went. It was a good 40 minutes of entertainment, no more.

Saw one chap wandering around with a tee-shirt bearing the phrase "I don't snore. I just dream that I'm a Motorbike".

He sounds like the sort of person you would want to stay away for in the pub.Paul wrote:Saw one chap wandering around with a tee-shirt bearing the phrase "I don't snore. I just dream that I'm a Motorbike".
