Having gone round and spoken to almost all of the frame builders at the show ths year, I would say love came into it quite strongly. Although I am sure they were happy to take orders, what they really loved was to talk bikes, and show off their wares. They weren't that bothered that I wasn't going to place an order. Whether that atmosphere can be replicated at the velodrome is to be seen.
And also,
"London is not really that far from anywhere in the UK"
Someone needs a geography lesson. I don't blame the organiser for wanting to make it more commercial, after all, it's not a charity but I suspect it won't be the same show any more.
