A CLASSIC BIKE SHOW KNOCK-OUT AT NEWARK! The winter blues were well and truly kicked into touch at the first major event of the classic bike show season. Launched for the very first time and held at Newark Showground over the weekend of January 7-8 -- The Carole Nash Classic Bike Guide Winter Show proved an enormous success. With 10,000 visitors through the gates, classic bikes galore and hundreds of trade stalls and dealers, the brand new show was the first of what will now become an annual event... and goes to prove just how strong the classic biking movement is. Star guests Steve Plater and Alan Carter kept the crowds highly entertained throughout the weekend and as the effervescent former British Superbike Champion Plater enthused: "It's been absolutely mega!" The event was the perfect place to bag a bargain and grab some inspiration from the superb motorcycle restorations on display -- including the machine that took the highly coveted Best in Show prize for £100 which was won by Malcolm Nettleship's 1969 Yamaha YAS1. Meanwhile the Best Club Stand was taken by the CBX Honda Owners' Club, whose members were delighted with their £750 prize. Exhibition manager Nick Mowbray said: "The weekend has been a huge success -- we are absolutely delighted with the feedback and are already building on plans for an even bigger and better show in 2013. Many traders have already booked their pitches for next year, having notched up business far beyond their expectations."
