  Strong rumour going around  that BMW and Ducati will not be attending the Abby Tradex bike show. Something g about truly horrific prices to enter a display.

Except Piaggio.

Who will, once again, probably hire some stooges that know nothing about their product stand around and be unable to answer any questions.

   I chatted to International locally, they have no intention of attending. In fact, they are organizing big open houses at both location the same weekend as the bike show.

 Hmmmm, Vancouver Motorcycle Show entry fee is now $20.64. Slightly less if over 65.  Or sure if it’s less at the entrance door, this price is online.

I don’t reckon I’ll go unless I can score a free ticket.

Steve, I was surprised to bump into you at the Vancouver Motorcycle Show today, good see you up and on your feet.

 I enjoyed the show, must have bumped into 12 plus people I haven't seen in ages, good to reconnect.

The ADV Motocycle Area was very active and had a few presentations which was good to see, they kept all the pirate clothing vendors at the opposite end of the show.

Man it was cold out, heading back to my car it felt like it was -25 C and saw one brave person rode their bike there, maybe he was cheap and was up for the free bike parking. Grin

   Good to see you and your lovely wife Dave! Yes, a 7 day river of antibiotics do make a difference it seems. It was a last minute decision to go with my bro in law, still enthusiastic in two wheeled machines after a 6 month rocky history in new RE machine.

 Yes, the bike show. Clearly the game changer is the uncovered area to feed 1/2 frozen parking payment machines in 50 km/hr winds at -20C. 10% of the machines frozen. Completely Ducking ridiculous. 

  The show is about 80% the previous show in 2020. Ducati and BMW were indeed no shows as per the rumor's. Honda, Kawasaki and Yamaha had full presence, honestly don't think Suzuki was there. HD in full display. Aprilia/Vespa a small display, KTM full display mostly fully attended by the personel from Daytona with Fenton at the head table.

  The usual assortment of touring companies, insurance companies, etc. Very pleasantly surprised to see adventure motorcycle segment company Mosko Moto out of White Salmon, WA with a full big display showing their unique riding garments as well ass their panniers and tasnk bags. Very high quality, I was a buyer way back in 2018, great stuff. Also saw Mountainview Motorsports in Chilliwack with alot of year and garments, helmets, 60% off tires, lots of stuff.
