How about just riding the things there? They are motorcycles after all

2 or 3 bikes hard to ride with just the 1 arse. Also Newark showground not the sort of place you want to be stuck at for 48 hours without a way of escaping ;)

My guess is that many people wouldn't be that enthusiatic about bead-blasting their favourite bike with wet road salt and then sitting back for two days watching all the alloy turn to white powder :)

Was a fantay weekend really enjoyed it.

Was good to meet everyone to have a chat and see the bikes in the flesh. They really are a credit to you, it's only when you get chance to walk round them you can properly appreciate what's gone into them. (y)

Just an FYI. I felt like crap last night and was wiped out today, had to do a covid test because of where we're working and Mrs Imago works in a school. The test was positive, so I could have picked it up at Newark, since Newark or I guess a day or two before. :S
