This is the international classic japanese bike show and its MASSIVE!!

planning to ride out on either saturday or sunday depending on the weather. we normally go down via knutsford and stop off at little chef, stoke (near A500)for a brew and a bit of crumpet!

then its filter riding near the stafford county showground as the roads are choked with punters.

I usually set off about 8am and get to stafford 10ish with pre bought tickets as the queues can be rather long (it has got better over the last few years) if anyone wants to come along,your welcome but be prepared to walk a ways as this is a big show and takes 4 hours just to walk round!!

ok, me and blackhat met up as planned, great to finally meet you John. Had a good day out and drooled over some stunning bikes 'like you do', here's a pic of us sampling the free hospitality at the Jawa owners club stand where the 'wags' were in national costumes. Well that's about it for this year as far as shows go! roll on summer.

We went on sunday ... it was a brillant day out ... bit bloomin cold on the way down ...but a great ride there none the less.

Posted up in the wrong thread for the ride there like a complete newby hahaha ... :(

Sorry we missed you ...

The bikes were amazing ... so much to see ... but I think we managed to see most things ... the food on site was bloo*dy expensive though ... stopped at Jn16 M6 at the Little Chef for some food on the way home .... :)

By the time we got within 20 miles of home, it was dark, wet and cold .... winters on its way :( :( :(


Be safe,

Shakey ;)
It's Sunday! get down on one knee and prey!

Life's not about how to dodge the storm, it's about learning to dance in the rain!!!
