Just letting you know of this superb show I should have done it earlier but I forgot A fiver entrance fee! Sure ye couldn;t beat it! and there's a bike jumble in the other hall as well!

Probably the best show in Norn Iron as far as I can see the people are real the bikes are real and not a load of pretentious ponces poncing around! :aidan

Oh also if you're going up in a car to the show the organisers would like you to use the car park to the left as you turn down the road to the leisure centre... there are signs up.
Last year they got a lot of complaints from normal leisure centre users they couldn't get parked to use the facilities.... they may not get using the place again if parking can't be controlled a bit better:(

turn off for parking

Aye Lazy Bartewards imagine going to do exrcise and griping about having to walk another hundred metres. :aidan:aidan:aidan

Next they be like the Yanks and want an escalator up to the gym instead of the stairs (I have that picture somewhere)

I'm looking forward to getting a gander tho!

Hey Tuned So when I turn off Dublin Road they'll have signs up then?
 
I've been wrackin my brains for the carpark that you're talking about and think I've finally got it cracked

I think the one i've outlined below is the one they mean cos the other side of the road is just houses and thier car park spaces

What ya think Chooned?

I know everyone has their own taste, but the owner of that GS needs help...:rob

I sold my one back in '94 and wish I hadn't. :(
Apart from the Motad 4:1, she was completely standard and as mint as an Imperial.

Apart from that, I enjoyed the show, especially the three 750 Kwackers. :thumb2

nah it is on the other side of the road before you turn into the leisure centre entrance it's some sort of council building(the wee side road i posted on the link)... there are plenty of signs up so you shouldn't miss it... alternately.... go on the bike :)
 
Was on the bike I took the wee K for a shakedown run to see how she coped with all the liquid!!!

Frickin Perfick If I may say so meself although those wee K bars take some getting used to after the renthals on the Gurr!!!! :aidan:aidan

The building was the old Antrim High school now shut down???

I'll throw some more photos of this years up later when the camera is dried out!
 
Just a few of the Hundred or so
