The Bike Shed Show

Postby Topcat » Sun Jun 01, 2014 1:41 pm

Some pictures from last Sundays The Bike Shed Show.

Bit of a last minute thing. Mate at work spotted the ad in the paper on Thursday evening, Ginny was coming up to spend the bank holiday weekend in London anyway so we decided to go along.

Would highly recommend going to next year’s one…

Push bikes as well

You could even get your hair cut…

I loved the minimilistic brake fluid reservoir.

Nice pics, .....

.... but voice of dissent :) Not my cup of tea, trying too hard to appeal to me, and mostly aimed at marketing metrosexual types who want to "buy" into the idea of motorcycle ownership once they've got bored of the HD thing :)
