The entrance to the free bike parking is off Montague st just around the bend from the freeway entrance.

I have my Nephew staying with us for a week of the school hols, so yesterday we took him to the Zoo and then to the Expo. The expo was ho-hum, apart from the Can-Am Spyder which looks horn!!!! :D

The Kawasaki Stand was there, but that's it. J.O. was busy doing his best to flog a Z or sumfink and lots of bods were crawling all over the Ulysess stickered GTR1400. (don't ask me why, it just had one on it? :? )

Blue 14 was over offering his sage advice and words of wisdom to potential Netriders.

Tarmac had his TW performance stand rocking and rolling with all his goodies on display.

Zongshen had there "Booter" on display. It's not a bike, but it's not a scooter! :lol: 250cc's, automatic, with it's own stereo! :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

One of Rossi's M1's is on display at the Yamahappiness stand as is one of Vermuelens Spewies.

Suzuki has the new B-king on display. (Refer to Stereo's Sig for description......)

Thanks! found it.

Been there and back, took fair few pics.. stocked up on some Kawa merchandise and missus also stocked up from some of the other girly-bike shops.

Was an alright day, the Yamaha 'action arena' was kinda useless.. they needed to put in some stadium type seating etc u unless u got a spot on the fence there was not much to see.

I give the day probably 7/10. They need some seating so you can take a break and lockers to dump your gear.

I cannot stand Harley's but the girls at the PROZAC stand were sizzling hot.
