Bespoked Bristol 2018

I couldn't see a thread for this year? Five of us are getting a train down there and then bikepacking home afterwards. Loved the show last year and I enjoyed seeing the stuff that a few forumengers were producing... more this year?
I also got to speak to Chris king, and had a part of his cutaway demo hub ping over my shoulder whilst attempting (hamfistedly!) to seperate it!

Theres a little cyclists campsite in the middle of Bristol for stayovers - 'Ennywevers'.

Ah... I'll check that out, cheers 👍

We did it last year and took a sedate few days to get back along the ridgeway... I think the plan this year is bridge to bridge, so Clifton to tower bridge.

Apparently my new bike is going to be greeting everyone at the entrance this year.

Whats this then?

I will be there hopefully Friday and Saturday.

I'm also hoping to collect mine too.

Are there any Lfgss complimentary tickets knocking about?

I'll be there. We are in the new builders room. https://www.instagram.com/staalcycles/

They only allow us newbie's two free tickets but Talbot/Isen probably get 10,000 and I'm sure @coldharbour will sort you all out :D

Dibs

I'm going to be there Saturday.
Anyone fancy some forum drinks?
Seems silly not to.

No wonder! That is seriously nice.

I love the little asymmetric touches.

I got blotto there last year (was my stag do too) and spoke a load of nonsense to Tom Warmerdam and Eric Estlund.....
coffee for me this year!

No! I refuse. Coffee will just make you chat a different kind of nonsense.
I was thinking in a pub afterwards. Where it's acceptable to be shitfaced.

If I wasn’t doing a 6 month dry January I’d be up for a bottle of red😛

It's basically a holiday and holidays don't count :)

Anyone looking at attending Bespoked Bristol on Friday 20th and fancy splitting a '2 for £20' entry*

*using my British Cycling membership?

Does anyone know of the British Cycling ticket pairs are valid on any day or just a particular day? The site reads as though it’s any day, but is not explicit.

(Already bought a pair, trying to figure out whether it allows Sunday entry.)

The answer from Tessa at Bespoked:

Yes your tickets are valid for entry on whichever day suits you best.

Last effort from me to 'buy a mate' for Fridays bespoked....any takers to share a £10 ticket deal?

.

I’m hopefully riding over from Cardiff on the Saturday evening, might check this campsite out. Will be hitting the show on the Sunday if any forum people will be about.

I didn’t mean to reply to your post Bonj0ur, apologies.

Anyone fancy riding there from London on the Friday?

Or possibly overnight friday night for nuttiness?
