Wee Man Posted January 12 Share Posted January 12 (edited) Hi Folks, I've applied for a pitch for OSS. It's a great show, good friendly vibe to it. If anyone would be interested in bringing their bike, IF we get a pitch, just let me know. Edited January 12 by Wee Man 1 Quote Link to comment

Almost exactly the same distance and travel time for me to go to Brussels. 1 Quote Link to comment
Paulm Posted January 12 Share Posted January 12 It's a great little show,been a few times,unfortunately can't make it this year,for me a once a year trip to Scotland for the show is something I look forward to,Gregg comes down and supports our shows,so it would be nice in my view if some of the Southern members went up to support his show. 2 Quote Link to comment

Chips with mayonnaise I mean both places have an indecipherable language but Scotland definitely wins on the food ..... clootie dumplings for the win 3 Quote Link to comment
Captain Chaos Posted January 12 Share Posted January 12 Brussels has good beer. And chocolate. You're right about the language though (says he who speeks fluent Dutch and French ) 2 Quote Link to comment

Totally agree and I'd like to make the trip tbh, I've had some good nights out in Edinburgh over the years. Unfortunately the lack of a bike to take issue won't be resolved for a while yet, and I doubt our Pictish chums would be particularly interested in a GSX1400 with its only stand out feature being a big kitten sticker on the tank. I don't need to go all the way to Edinburgh for people to take the piss, I can get that here. Same goes for shows South East and West of here, although it seems unless you go across the channel there doesn't seem to be much going on in those directions aside from the 'brown seat and beard oil' shows down South. 1 Quote Link to comment

Take the Dresda up as it is at the time,as ive said to you before,bikes dont need to be complete,projects are good for the public to see,dont need to be shiny either as far as im concerned,its all interesting to people. 1 Quote Link to comment

It won't be anywhere near ready by the middle of March, once it's done I'll take it to some shows later in the year. Still that's better than the draw through, that's unlikely to appear anywhere until 2025. Maybe the 2025 Scottish show could be its inaugural trip out? Quote Link to comment

SiBag Posted January 17 Share Posted January 17 (edited) What's the score with camping etc for this one? Doh! Just answered my own question by looking at last year's post. Edited January 17 by SiBag 1 Quote Link to comment
geogsxr Posted January 23 Share Posted January 23 I live in Glasgow, weather here is always much nicer than Edinburgh at this time of year, I would not be camping then, probably a bit cold still. Cheap hotel better idea. G Quote Link to comment
