Anyone contemplating going to the bike show in London this coming weekend ?
Ive been to the NEC show but not the xcel, just wondered if it's on the same par or better ?

Hi Duggie, been to the Excel show a few times in the past, it's very similar to the NEC a bit smaller usually. I only normally go if I'm contemplating buying something, you can get a slightly better deal than the NEC on lasts years stuff. This weeks MCN had a show guide in so you can see who's showing. If your in London over the weekend it's BMW night at the Ace cafe on Saturday from 6pm.
