GEMS SHINES AGAIN!
11-12 June, Hop Farm Country Park, Paddock Wood, Kent.
Now in its 1Oth year, this year’s Garden of England Motorcycle Show hit all the right buttons yet again with a weekend attendance of 19,221, up nearly 800 on last year’s figure.
With bright, sunny weather and set in the beautiful surroundings of the Kent countryside, this well-established event had no trouble building on a successful formula of arena activities, trade stalls, club stalls and dozens of side-shows.
Sponsored by Carole Nash Insurance, its well-earned reputation as one of the friendliest bike shows in the UK always attracts a wide family audience as well as the enthusiast and this year was no exception.
Horsepower of the four-legged kind provided excitement galore in the main arena when the Knights of the Damned put on a stunt display as it would have been hundreds of years ago, but showing what the youth of today can do, the youngsters of the Tigers motorcycle display team put on a display that would put even a bold Knight to shame!
Regular favourites UK FMX put on a spectacular display of extreme motocross tricks while another hardy-annual, the bizarre game of Motoball, drew as many laughs as it did gasps!
Such was the demand for space that trade bookings had closed two weeks prior to the show so it was no real surprise that all reported doing good business. Traders proved generous too in providing free prizes for the popular road show, now a regular feature of GEMS.
