I?m doing Milan.

Found the IK shows a little underwhelming

EICMA is mental, but sadly BMW withdrew from it.
I don't know if they are doing Intermot and showing their new models there.

I?m mainly looking and grabbing some new kit and accessories for the track bike so hoping prices are better in Milan as I don?t think you get a deal anymore at the UK shows.

With the value of the ? crashing, everything from outside of the UK is about to get much more expensive.

Stuff I'm looking at still slightly cheaper and due to supply issues, some of the kit hasn't made it to the uk in my size all season.

Eitherway, flights were cheap so making a little holiday out of it and if I come back with some goodies, I'll be happy.

Its a good show. Gotta get your elbows out in my experience.

Yep did it back in 2017. Wife surprised me with a tickets to show and visits to Ferrari, Lamborghini, Pagani and the Ducati factory. Had a V4S on order so was excited to watch the first ones being built on the line.

Went the same year!

I've done EICMA too in 2019, I went there and back on the same day, brilliant - stepped out of the airport and got on a pre-booked bus straight to the show entrance. Elbows out needed near the Ducati and Aprilia stands, Bucket loads of Chinese bikes and accessory stands which were selling mainly 'tat'. Loved the Rizoma stand and thought the products on display were worth rubbing both thighs with my hands in a crouching position and mouthing the sound Ooooooo.

I'll be at the NEC in November, but it isn't as good a spectacle as EICMA - put it on your bucket list

Ditched the NHS and went private. In 5 days I've gone from waiting three months for a follow up to:
1. Getting an appt with a specialist
2. Confirmation I need an op
3. Getting a date for the op...
4. Which is early Nov...

...so v unlikely to make NEC

That sounds like a better plan all round.
