Made it to not one but two events today. Main one was the Bristol Classic Bike show which confusingly is held in Shepton Mallet. On the way there I dropped into a Bike Jumble at Bristol and met up with a bunch of people I hadn't met since the Hotrod Drags.
I then managed to persuade Stuart that a day looking at shite old bikes was better than a day doing shopping and housework so picked him up and headed off to the show.
This Triumph was on the Hill Climb Association stand.... I like it and think that Hill Climbing is something I might have a go at.
Picture is from Stuart as I had forgotten my camera.
The main reason I had gone to Shepton Mallet was to collect a load of powder coated parts from Nick at Griff's I'll be updating http://tribsa.blogspot.com/ with details at some point.
The powder coating used up most of my cash so the only things I bought were the latest couple of issues of DiCE. I also met up with some of the Dirty Bobbers crowd which was nice.
I am grateful to Chas for persuading me that a day looking at SoBs was a better prospect than shopping and housework. It was a good day out and I got to meet some interesting people. I also got to buy some tools, which is a fine thing to do.
ReplyDeleteIt was my first visit to the Bristol Classic Bike Show and won't be my last.
