Have just got back from BBT, must say slightly disappointed with the whole thing. There wasn't enough gadgets for
me to look at and play with. If I was a boy racer I would be in Heaven. Even the number of Promo girls in tight tops were down this year.

wmoore, fully agree.

Seems like a lot more motorcycles than in previous years, I remember bbt having a strong IT presence (there was a big display with tablet pcs a couple years back) which was sadly lacking this year.

Having said that, I did enjoy this year better than in previous - I took the morning off work and went down on Friday - no crowds and it was great to be able to walk around without running into people left, right and center. I'd highly recommend it for those who can pull it off.

Interesting the number of school kids wagging...
