hi all

anyone know how to get cheap tickets to the NEC bike show this year?

does the NEC hammer you for parking like most exhibitions?

    When approaching the NEC site follow the signs to the railway station and park in the station car parks (a new multi storey just opened)

    You can walk through to the NEC halls and pay for parking at pay meter in station concourse - usually a little cheaper than NEC car parks - I think I paid £5 all day when I went to the Grand Designs exhibition earlier this year.

    Hampton-in-Arden railway station is one stop away, costs about £1 each way, and has free parking, so not a bad option if you are travelling alone and don't mind the diversion.

    Avoids the awful traffic around the NEC too, depending where you are coming from.

    Also rather useful for flying from Birmingham Airport - we used it many many times.
