9-12th Oct, Bike Show... free stuff, kinda...

Free to anyone who can help me out....

Bike show tickets, a bottle of something nice, a pedros mechanics shirt and life time trade prices on any of the stuff we sell (that's stronglight, pedros, schwalbe, sigma, woodman, USE and a bunch of others).....

Just one small catch.... my boss is a notorious tightwad, and asked me to come do the bike show because I'm from London originally and he figured I'd be able to find somewhere to stay that wouldn't cost him.... unfortunately I've been let down by a friend and need somewhere to kip while the show is on (sofa/floor/garden/cupboard are all acceptable).... I know noone here actually knows me so it's a big ask, and begging on a first proper post may result in ritual disimbowellment but what the hell, it's worth a shot.....

Oh and whatever happens, I'll try to get to one of the list drinks or something while I'm down, so at least I'll meet a few of you....after lurking here a year or so It'd be interesting to finally put faces to online personas.....

i can put you up for a night or two, i am about 20 mins cycle from excel, which is where i presume they are holding the show, i may even come along to the show with you
on media day
last year i registered as working at a friends bike shop and got in for free. press pass

It's at Earls Court this year (as it was last year).

ok still can put you up but it will be a 50 min ride to earls court from east london.

Nah, I was more thinking of bivvying on Hampstead Heath if I can't find anywhere else.... the bathing pools for morning ablutions, a nice downhill run to earls court in the morning and if I'm really lucky a chance to share a spliff and some greek loving with George Michael of an evening

You've got it all worked out!
