Telford 2021 anyone going?
Discussion
Not this year. First one in 11 years I’ve not been to (apart from last year). Mainly as I’ll be racing my bike but tbh still don’t feel 100% comfortable in that sort of indoor environment.
Talking to various people in the industry, lots of traders won’t be going either. Many guys from Europe not coming over due to brexit hassle and uk based guys due to covid and the possibility of low visitor numbers reducing sales to the point they will make a loss.

I’m thinking about it, only hesitating because I’m not sure if I want to be closely surrounded by hundreds of people - I usually pick up a bug from there even on a good year and not sure I want to push my luck (even though I’ve been double jabbed)
Also, hearing rumours there won’t be as many exhibitors as previous years.
But I do only live an hour away so I’ll probably just cave in and go 😂

It will still be by a very long way, the biggest show with a huge amount of organisation going on working with TIC. There are still international companies attending.
It is advanced tickets only for non IPMS members, as usual the lay out will be published on the website.
Unfortunately self fulfilling prophets are at it…. a bit like all the dheads queuing for fuel at the moment. This is not a comment directed to people who for health reasons are concerned about going to the event.

Yes, a canny stroll from Berks but have been denied model shows for too long. The Elstree show is sooner: https://ipmsuk.org/calendar/the-elstree-model-show...
and Shuttleworth should be on schedule for Feb.
I`ll run the risk of mixing with the usual smelly old fart demographic. Might not shower for a few days so I can blend in..
