South East Biker Motorcycle Forum

Following on from the discussion in the thread about the BMF show I thought it would be good to start a thread on what people would LIKE TO SEE at a show. I am about to launch a new motorcycle website for help finding people, features events etc for wherever you are or are going to. When the site builds in popularity and more bikers are using it then far far far far far on the bike of my mind (that was a good type) it would be great to run an event.

With that partially in mind it would be great to know what people would want to have at a Good event as there seems to be many samo samo events.

You have to have stalls and kit etc as well as bike sellers at an event as although we can buy anything on line now, it is still nice to see what you are buying and although people offer "Show Specials" that tend to be more expensive than buying online it is nice to buy from an actual physical company!

I would also personally like to have some events of interest such as speed trials but for me I want things to try such as tester bikes, go karts, wheelie machine, mini moto etc...... to make it fun and memorable!!

Decent food such as hog roast and a BBQ offering burger rather then ONLY burger fans etc.....

What do you think???? Your Thoughts and views??

I think when doing the first one where would need to be an element of keeping simeple stupid. I would propose therefore not to do the camping and overnight and party as that creates a new level of complications, costs and more. I would propose to make it a bloody good day with lots to do and see and then maybe build on that if there was sign of interest.

Would you agree with that or lose interest?

Right on, I know a couple of places that would be interested, including the 1066 cafe which has a hall, large carpark, camping area and is on the A21, there is also a place in Horsebridge which the BSA owners use for their events with a pub attached, maybe some camping. Its a start. Will be happy to help out. Let me know.

Yeah would love to take a ride over, the guy Dan who runs it would be very accomodating, I went to the monthly custom car and bike meet ,admittedly early last night, but there was a strong showing as we left GT40, loads of model T's with the obligatory massive V8s, a bel-air, couple of chevys, and yes a Harley. So as and when you like. I might suggest a Saturday as he shuts about 6 ish unless there is an event on, also its a good excuse to get out at the weekend, 'darling just have to chec a venue, yes its in Paris I know, but its for the best you can understand?'

I look forward to hearing from you.

Sorry missed that last post, unfortunately work calls, struggle to make the meets during the week, but spend as much time out during the week.
Maybe we can meet up when a ride comes this way.... or if you fancy a weekend ride over this way?

I'll give you a clue, its under the location section..........
Sunshine coast.
Give me a call during the week or send a text.
