Anyone know if you can just turn up and pay on the door?

Don't want to travel all that way and not get in, but don't want to trust the Post Office to get my ticket to me in time

(I did google it and look on here, but it doesnt say, as far as I can see)

I think you can download and print your own ticket. Pretty sure I did last year.

Yeah that's what we've done

ah ok, I got a long way through the booking process and it wasn't indicating I could and didn't want to press buy and then find I needed a paper copy

I wasn't the person to actually order them online but I saw them printed off so I knew you could do it but I don't know where in the process it lets you do it.

 

[Lee_M]

done it thanks everyone.

think I may go on the motorbike to prevent over enthusiastic purchasing!

Thanks for the reminder

Paying in advance is a bit cheaper, but on the door is OK. Try to get there early to avoid crowds. I'm missing this year as it clashes with my visit to the Astrophotographer of the year 2016 in London. I could probably do both if it was still in London Excel. Anyone else here tend to come away from these shows with about 50 tons of catalogues & flyers?.

That's a bit harsh.

I didn't spend a lot of time on the smaller stands last year, but I did see Lezyne had some good show offers on lights and other stuff they make.

Another stand had what looked to be good quality tools, including some of the more arcane ones which you rarely see in a bike shop.

A lot of clothing was on offer, again a wider choice than a bike shop but with the advantage over online of being able to try the stuff on.

Obviously, anything is only worth buying if you want or need it.

Still better than being in the office!
