I’m still not 100% for the weekend mate, I shall let you know ASAP though 

[Paulm]

Ok ,still not had confirmation yet,but we dont have many takers at the moment,anyone else interested?

[clivegto]

Can not do the hole weekend but could do 1 day maybe. 

[SiBag]

Not sure what I'm up to at the moment.

Don't have access to a van anymore so if I can bring something it will have to be road legal. I'll know more in a week or so.

[Paulm]

Unfortunately we cant have a stand at Manchester,so thanks to all who volunteered bikes,see you all soon.

It might be something to do with the fact that the show's organiser doesn't like customised motorcycles nor the people who build them, he said something along the lines of "we don't want those kinds of people at our show..."

I see that it has been postponed thanks to someone having a sniffle, cough or something...

Considering the size of the red and white stand there over the last few years I doubt thats too much of an issue

Just repeating what I heard Dave, and had considered the fact that the red & white and various modified bikes were in attandance to be something of a contradiction. And while I know a lot of people had a very very good time at the show, I'll not be going... whenever (if ever?) the re-arranged date is.

OSS not going was nothing to do with the shows organisers opinions of customised bikes Dave.

Not heard anything from anyone about it,I know it's changed venue though.

[davecara]

I saw something on fartbook about it, @Harry74normally does this one. I’m happy to take the reins though if need be?
