I love going and was hoping the slight changes might bring in a few more people and maybe a slightly different crowd. It would be horrible for it to die a death :(

This year it was so quiet there was mist rolling over the field.

An MCC that I belong to used to help marshal at BMF - last one we did was 2006. Got fed up with being taken the p*** out of by BMF (& the G**dw**g owners, who seem to think it's their personal show). Not to menion the tent thefts by local scrotes. Now affiliated to MAG - vast improvement. Overpriced show full of tatt.

Would sooner go to Hubb, which will cater to our tastes.
KTM 1290 Super Adventure T - Power!
KTM 690 Enduro R - lighter to pick up
Husqvarna Svartpilen 401 - Fun.

Even our dogs are orange.

Only bikers understand why dogs put their heads out of car windows.

Figures from the BMF say 44,000 visitors, 3,000 up from last year.
Personally I can't see it, it must've been busy on the Sunday afternoon after we left.
Not so long ago it was 80,000
