the dome is a large leisure centre near the new lakeside complex and easily accessable from the M18 junction (follow signs to the racecourse). Its also opposite a massive ASDA so the area gets congested at times. Its a good show with lots of clubs and trade stands. The sailing area is ok with plenty of launching area.

Doncaster is a nice place with plenty to see and do in the area so you can spend a whole day without a problem.

 i will be down on the saturday, maybe the sunday too.

Hi All,

I'll be going on Saturday, and will be on the Goole Club's stand. It's the first time I have gone, as I'm usually on holliday that weekend. The Goole club has always said it's a great show, so looking forward to it.

Also looking forward to meeting 'MARTIN' ;D as he has always been so quick and helpfull when I have had computer problems.

Perhaps we should all have badges with our forum names on, so we can spot each other and either say hello or hide. ;D ;D ;D

Regards BobF

There are roadworks on the M1 around the M18 junction area. If you're travelling through that area going to or from the show, it may be a good idea to seek an alternative route. Traffic conditions today have been, and probably still are, horrendous.

Thanks for the info,

If I get there I should be easy to spot, a little ginger head in bike gear, so say hello.
