Further south, however I do know that stands are free at the Kempton Park (Sunbury, Middx) Classic Bike Show which is in May.

Have had an oldskoolsuzuki.info stand there the last 2 years (my old slabby has been on display with some others - good laugh) and have applied for another one this year.

Might be worth checking out?

This one is at Blackpool.

No idea of prices etc, but they do mention club stands and categories for show bikes. Camping too.

Happy to drop them a line to ask for more details...

inside the main hall is a no dice, the side halls may be a go, but outside under a big tent is more likely
tbh its never going to be a viable money raiser, its always going to be a great meet and maybe spark a bit of interest in the quality 400 bikes still around.
be nice to get a standard one of the main models, and a couple of heavily modded examples. but this would require alot of space and be in excess of 2k for the weekend i think.
be a cracking laugh though i think

might be able to help on the modded one if i get it back together and the stand gets sorted

I hate you all! I thought NC30s were rare in the USA, but they are all but extinct here in Italy!!! Mine is the only one I have seen.

As I mentioned last year, there is a classic bike meet at Mallory Park with track sessions, autojumble etc.

I think basically you have to book and pay for your place for the track with camping available. I was there courtesy of Eriks though, the main sponsor, so someone would have to check.

I think its about time 400greybike became a proper club with a lot of loyal members with great bikes to show!

Is that Eriks who used to be Wyko Jo?

yes - they are our main supplier at work.

Oh right,I was just off out of the door to the Norwich branch.I get all my rod ends from them.

Im going to the fest 1000 bikes! its a great meeting if you into older bikes too, they had the norton rotaries out of track last time as well as foggy on a 916 whitham on his old race bikes

hoping to have a go on a friends 1968 ducati 250 wide case racer this time aswell as his 1946 vellecette 350 mac racer, rode that round brooklands and it was fun and scary in equal measure


fest 1000 bikes has everything, track riding club stands shops trials riding classic mx on the mx track and is rammed full of famous bikes and faces, would be a good one for a 400greybike stand and I will be taking both my bikes their so they could go on stand
