Bristol Classic Bike Show

[nigel bessant]

It was good to meet some of you and thankyou for taking the time and trouble to drop by the stand, i always love a good natter.

If it wasn't for the fact that this is a local big show and therefore an oppertunity to promote our section and club i don't think i would bother going, certainly not every year, it's same o same o.

Because of this and the lack of Japanese bikes and bringing in new blood so to speak, is one of the major reasons that we are putting on the Japfest.

I know some of you cannot make the Japfest but if you do, come and say hello, always nice to meet fellow enthusiasts, and thanks again for the pleasure of meeting you.

Do we have details of the Japfest Nick?

I went with my boy on Sunday and yes I think its the same bikes every year but I still enjoy looking at everything thats been polished up over the early winter months for the show. Some nice Kwak triples and a couple of Z's.

Met Mikey for the first time whilst waundering around as he noticed my Z1 Owners Club jacket.

Good to meet you as well mark, always good to put a face to a name.

You certainly do Nigel, it is further down on the Meetings board under Classic Bike Japfest, however the web site is here www.japfest.net we now have at least 150 Classic Japanese bikes entered on club stands or as private exhibitors and still growing, be good to have some more Z's or even a club stand though.
