    I will drop in, need to catch up with a few people that have helped me out with my 700RR build.
    Also need to catch up with Andy straps who's just completed some new bags for me.
    Was hoping to have my bike ready for the weekend, just waiting on a bracket, will be tight. Nick Luke's 700RR that we have just completed will be on display there.

    When we going Dicko?

    Ill be there Friday as soon as the bar opens, its Winna's shout. And Im thirsty.

    Actually, I just had a good conversation with Darren (Winna)- he said for anyone coming along, if you give him the special code word (Rally Raid) he'll hand out a free beer voucher.

    You will see one of these on the ADV Rider Magazine stand too

    Went his morning. Easily filled in three hours or so.

    The many of the stand folk have gotten a lot better at engaging with the paying public. The people at Triumph and Touratech were particularly good :clap

    Pretty things to see and lots to dream about.

    No Honda, Suzuki or Kawasaki there. Without Yamaha it would have been in trouble... I had hoped to pick up a new helmet but there wasn't much there along those lines.
