The location of either show works for some and not others! Cross country from here is slow by road and even worse by rail, hence NEC and Stoneleigh never at the top of my 'visit' list!
I see there are a few exhibitors splitting themselves to be at both shows. Good for them, sure it will not be easy.
Agree that RR needs to be at the start of a season, not at the end. Am sure organisers must realise this.....
