Did you enjoy the show?

I wont be making it this year, but looking out of the window I wish I'd gone today.

Had a great two days at the show. Spent the majority of it on the Singular stand - Great to chat to people about Singular stuff and the Wildcat stuff that was on display on the Puffin.

Got a good look at the Rooster, and quite excited about possibly being able to get a ride on one at some point.

But, the Bike of the Show for me was the new/ upcoming disc version of the Kite. Available in September, it just looks vaguely exciting from any and every angle.

Ian, that Puffin with the camo Wildcat kit was my personal best bike in show. It just looked perfect - well done on the display there.
I'm just going outside ...

Yup, Singular, Salsa and the Saffron custom saved me from the usual show-fatigue this year. I love the new Gryphon colour. And camo bags, very tempting.

Cheers chaps. I spoke to so many people on Saturday I lost track of who people were. Several familiar faces but the only person to declare their identify was Chunk off the UK Fat Bike forum. Still, lots of fun talking about bikes all day to like-minded folk. Roll on Bespoked in April :grin:
