Great pix Dave...
I'm going to pick my top three in a bit. Do you think you could deliver them to me next week?

I was a little underwhelmed by the show today. The plus was meeting some of the guys and having an un-virtual meet. Superdream 1. The seller said the rest of it was in boxes around the other side, which some of it was. Superdream 2. Was already marked as sold when we got there about 11am. Superdream 3. Was inside the hall and was marked up at £400 with a V5. The contact number on it is 07930180802 if anyone is interested. Looks like it had already been marked down. Balcony view. Socially distanced displays. Outdoor entertainment. We didn't get anything. Personally, I was disappointed with the bike jumble due to the lack of it! Maybe October will be better. One guy I was speaking to only booked his indoor pitch 2 days before. My lad enjoyed it though, this was his first.

Andy your lad is a “big lad” and he’s still growing🙀 Good to meet you both.I had a good day enjoying the company of Pete and Neil and Carl briefly.As Pete said we the public needed to support the event to show support so hopefully October will be better😁

Like Andy I was disappointed at the lack of stalls, still got a few £1 bargains and was very tempted by a CB750F. I hope this show doesn’t put people off the next one as we need these events, but I do worry that ebay may be killing off the traders.

Thought you meant the red 750F didn’t really look at the blue one.Red one looked too good to be true 😂😂

And his taste is improving (he likes the look of Ernie!). It was great to meet you, Pete and Neil. Sorry we lost you in the hall, turned around and everyone had gone. We did bump into Neil again when he was sorting the speedo out. I think the show was supported by the public the best they could as it was sold out, at least for the Saturday. It may be the sellers did not support as they normally do, or have they moved online due to all the cancelled events? I hope October has more to route around in.

Well I cant disagree with a lot of the comments in this Thread but went with a small list of bits and bobs and came back with an RE so I probably had the most successful day
Interesting that one dealer reported brisk sales and with less people probably had done better than a normal Stafford
Roll on October

The lack of crowds made it quite pleasant and I had a good day out apart from me losing 2 mini cheddar cheese pastry pork pies🙀I hope they went to a good home.😁

some nice bikes there, I'm liking the 44 and the starfire and for some reason I cant quite explain that rather well used triumph.
gave leighton hall a miss today, wussed it with the rain, but I also got to thinking how many exhibitors would turn up?

When I were a lad and Starfire owner I wanted a 441 Victor Special even today look fantastic.That Triumph had character it’s obviously been neglected in a shed or dare I say barn for years
