I miss the car shows. When are they coming back?

When I went on an ebike hunt last year I spoke about the cost of the shows to the owner of an ebike company with whom I'm acquainted.

He told me his stand - reasonable size but not the biggest - cost more than £5K.

That's a lot for a weekend, particularly when you add hotels, travel, and staff costs.

Bianchis are still celeste.

Reason enough to go, I'd have thought.

Crikey! I feel guilty for blagging a couple of drinks bottles off the Fat Lads stall now! No wonder he was nearly crying
