NEC Bike show
Its almost time again for the NEC bike show which this year is on from 28th Nov to 5th Dec.
The annual festivities for this year have gotten even bigger and better, with loads more to do. You can visit the Thunderdome Games Arena, check out the Off Road Zone or have a go on the Superbike Simulator. Whenever you decide to go, make sure you buy your ticket in advance (£15 v £17).
The best thing I always think about the bike show, aswell as the women, is the bargains that can be had. Last year I picked up a set of BKS leathers that had an RRP of £1299. Because they happened to have my size in the colours that I wanted, I got these for a bargain £500. I also got some new Alpinestars gloves which were reduced from £129 to £70.
I dont understand why anyone would buy full price from a bike dealer when you might as well wait until the NEC show and save 50%.
The show is also a great chance to take a look at next year's winter bargains too. Er, I mean new models for 2009. The new Yamaha R1 promises to be an amazing piece of kit. Dont know about you, but I think the R1 in white looks the absolute boll**ks!! I will be glad when its 2k cheaper come next September than at the start of the season.
So go enjoy yourself, look at women in lycra suits, dream about new bikes and get some bargains. We love the NEC!!
