I enjoyed it but sadly the stunt cyclists were all at the back so you could only get round one side to watch. This meant a crowd several deep that it was difficult to see through. Still good fun though and I got a new rack pack (always wanted one) and some bike floss for my gritty bits. Some nice bikeflesh on offer including side-by-side recumbent trikes which looked cool. I also met Magnatom of youtube video fame at the POP stand. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=6078#post-64964 Thu, 12 Apr 2012 00:45:55 +0000 chdot 64964@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>"<br /> Book Now<br /> £6<br /> save £2<br /> "</p> <p><a href="https://www.itison.com/Glasgow/events/on/Friday" rel="nofollow">https://www.itison.com/Glasgow/events/on/Friday</a> </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=6078#post-64871 Wed, 11 Apr 2012 17:12:54 +0000 Puzzle 64871@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>If you are doing the Sportive on the Sunday entry is free. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=6078#post-64864 Wed, 11 Apr 2012 16:25:11 +0000 Min 64864@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>Having rummaged about the SECC website a bit, it IS £10 on the day. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=6078#post-64859 Wed, 11 Apr 2012 15:10:12 +0000 Wilmington's Cow 64859@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>We'll be leafleting outside. :)</p> <p>(as well as seeing if some standholders will put up a poster). </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=6078#post-64858 Wed, 11 Apr 2012 15:05:00 +0000 Baldcyclist 64858@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>Actually, would this not be an ideal place to get the #POP28 message out, have those involved organised a stand/place to sign petition etc? </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=6078#post-64856 Wed, 11 Apr 2012 15:03:01 +0000 Min 64856@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>Oh good lord no.

I quite enjoyed it last year. And unless they are bumping the price up on the day, it looks a little cheaper than last year (I though £10 was too much). </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=6078#post-64848 Wed, 11 Apr 2012 14:31:13 +0000 thebikechain 64848@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>We pulled out a few weeks ago - bit of a pain for the organisers so we had a bit of apologising to do.</p> <p>Should be ok we think but not sure overall what the benefit the show has to actual cycling as a pastime.</p> <p>We were going to keep our display pretty simple and have no retail but then again it is so expensive in money and time to go i can see why companies retail to try to cover it all. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=6078#post-64840 Wed, 11 Apr 2012 13:24:27 +0000 Arellcat 64840@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>2012 thread already here:</p> <p><a href="http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=3673" rel="nofollow">http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=3673</a></p> <p>and the 2011 thread:</p> <p><a href="http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=2764" rel="nofollow">http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=2764</a></p> <p>I might visit for the morning, and then potter up to Milngavie to see if I can find any remains of Bennie's structure. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=6078#post-64838 Wed, 11 Apr 2012 13:20:04 +0000 Baldcyclist 64838@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>Went last year, big shop, some BMX stuff going on too.<br /> Maybe of interest if you're in the 'trade' for contacts etc, otherwise just a big shop. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=6078#post-64835 Wed, 11 Apr 2012 13:13:37 +0000 DaveC 64835@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>Is anyone going?
