Yep, they've done a swappo and put the manufacturers downstairs. Apparently they were bitchin that the crowd didn't have enough time up there or something, cause the crowd would bank up and people would move off before they were really finished lookin.

Somethin like that anyways...

Well looks like i'm working on saturday morning now..
One of the guys had to take the shift I wanted or he couldn't work at all, so I took an earlier shift. (8am-4am) But i'll be able to wonder over at about 12 I recon.. Weather isn't shaping up to well, so i could just be driving to work..

Nothing that blew me away .. the kwaka stand was a bit dissapointing i reckon...
though they did have a cutaway 636 and 10 so you could see the insides which was quite cool.... not that i knew what i was looking at :)
no new models or anything though.

the tiny buells were 380 kg's!!! couldn't believe it, same weight as the rocket.
