i doubt if i'll be disappointed tomorrow as it never has been much of a show. i only go for an excuse for a day out really and there isnt much bikey stuff on this time of year. we usually get the train up, pub crawl from waterloo to excel, couple of hours looking at this and that, then "invert route". but the weather forecast looked good, funds are low, and the south bank pubs these days have been bought out and are either "ye olde touriste" wallet hammers or takeaways so we thought we'd ride up for once.
Yes, you park inside - I was quite impressed actually, as its about 2min from the main entrance.
You can 'deposit' you helmet/jacket etc. but they charge 2pounds or so.
Anyway, must say not bad. Much more off/enduro helmets to try on. Found quite good deal on AGV AX-8 for 199, which I think is not bad. Eventually went for Shoei Hornet DS for 250.
As Stray Dog mentioned if you're XS/XXL you can get something like ARAI XD-3 (not 4) for 250ish...
BTW, did I miss something or there was no BMW stand ???
Not bad trip, good weather and finally got my new helmet.
