Ive just seen in one of the local town freebies the Calne bike show will be on
SATURDAY 21st JULY 2007
If youve never been before - Shame on you! - Its HUGE!! About 4000 bikers descended on Calne last year DESPITE the rain! Its run by the Lions Club, so you know you can trust the organisation, and it covers EVERY type of bikes, trikes and genre of the biking world from Customs to Scooters, Classics to Uber Hyperbikes, Trials to track bikes! You can also buy clothes, helmets, spares (in the auto jumble or trade stands!) I even bought my bike there last year!!.... its the whole F*cking shibang
All the town is swamped with bikes AND the shops are bike friendly!!!!!!
It would be well worth having a stand to promote the site there if possible!
Sounds like it would be well worth the trip over. :)
I missed this last year as it was on the same day as a castle combe day, but should be there this year :D
Is there any camping near by, may as well make a weekend of it lol

Yeah! Theres a really good site at Blacklands Nature reserve just outside town. Im not 100% sure if there is an organised site thats connected in with the show or not, but Im sure there is something on the North side of town just off the A3102 if the grey cells work & I remember i will post details nearer the time. Also I will see if I can find a web site with details for you too.
AND before you ask my garden is TOO SMALL!!! ;D
Why dont we try to make it into an official WB Rally!!! ::) Now theres a new idea!! ::) Cough cough!!!! ::)

Went to it the other year, mainly old skool bikes like BSA's/Aerials etc...I like the idea of WB setting up a stand there though considering a couple of 1000 bikers from the area decend on the show could really benfit the site...not too sure on costs but when I was there we ran a Suzuki Owners Club stand so it can't be massively expensive! (Just need a table/shade/chairs/beers) lol

yes andrew we know about your ideas ;D im up for it just so long as the 'nature' of the title doesn't mean anything other than
wildlife of the small furry mammalian variety, and not the hysterically funny dangling parts of the male or female anatomy, though i
have heard wrinkly sex involves lots of vaseline to prevent friction burns perhaps you could confirm or deny this???

Kaz!! Im SHOCKED that you would think like that of me!! (But if the offer is there.... ;) BOLOX! What would the wife say....? NO!!! Must stop wicked thoughts! :-[)
The site is the one that was surgested by Bluebiker (for those of a good memory) last year for a rally. I seem to re-call there was someone on here who was connected to the camp site.
I used to be a member of the posh gym (NO LAUGHING AT THE BACK PLEASE!! >:() there and I know its a decent, smart, family orientated site that WELCOMES Bikes. I think its BMF registered. I will see if I can find their web site and put up some details.

Wow! Glad you got the dates for this.. I couldnt find it anywhere!
I know last year was a bit soggy (weather wise folks!) but the year before had beautiful weather and a great turn up of bikes.
Sounds great...... would definately be up for the camping lark providing I pass my test and PK is home long enough for us to go bike shopping by then! ;)
