Just heard a whisper that this might be getting close to selling out... but there will be still some gate tickets ... weather is a bit unpredictable this weekend and this site has plenty of spaces inside to sit and chill while watching the weather ;)

Is it worth going if you can only stay a few hours? Or you really have to stay the whole even to get your moneys worth? Not sure what there is to see if I'm just passing through.

It's not a day ticket event as there are talks, seminars and tutorials on various skills going on all weekend hence the price.

Actually this isn't so much an event around "getting your moneys worth" so much as knowing that this is primarily a fund raiser for a very very worthwhile charity Motorcycle Outreach founded by a very good friend of the organisers and many contributors, the late, and greatly missed, Simon Millward.

If it's as good as last years inaugural event it will be well worth the money. Looking forward to it, arriving sometime Friday evening see you then!
