I was there today - between maybe 3 and 4. Could I have passed you?
If so, care to offer an (objective) self description?
Needed less time than last time - 45 mins I think - though it is of course good that cycling is now very popular, and diversity is of course good, much of the show still strikes me as, er, "posy nonsense".
I have posted elsewhere on the company offering a range (a range FFS) of products you are supposed to smear on your balls (probably not of great interest to you) after showering - thus ruining a perfectly good shower and clean pair of undershorts or lycra shorts.
One chap tried to persuade me that returning to a bike with a wet/damp saddle was a major problem for cool urbanites - the solution was a shoddy looking thing for about £25 I was supposed to put on top of a saddle I presumably liked the feel of as it was. I did suggest that maybe you could just wipe the saddle but this was apparently so just yesterday.
Good to see weldtite there with their useful sensible stuff,
The most interesting stand was, I thought, Cinelli.
I have a great respect for Italian craftsmanship and there were some beautiful steel frames on the stand - £2,000 or so just for a frameset and I am not in the market for such a thing for a whole variety of reasons. But they were things of beauty.
And they had one of these:

Really nice tour/expedition bike with sensible specs.
And a pretty decent sensible price for such a thing.
And who would have thought that Italians would have come up with such a thing?
And with a square taper BB.
The guy on the stand I nattered to was really nice as well. And knew his stuff.
