With the upcoming Carole Nash Motorcycle Live Show in full preparation we have teamed up with the show's organisers to bring you a fantastic competition and a prize of 5 pairs of tickets to the event on any day!!! This year is proving to be a bumper year for exhibitors - with all major brands present and event more for you to see, the show runs from the 27th November through to 5th December giving you plenty of time to get down and see the 2011 bikes and products on offer. Entry as always is free so what are you waiting for?
The recently announced Carole Nash Motorcycle Live event has clearly captured the imagination of the world's biggest and best motorcycle manufacturers with the organisers announcing today that a record number of brands will be exhibiting this year. No fewer than 30 manufacturers have now confirmed to attend the all-new event running from 27th November to 5th December at Birmingham’s National Exhibition Centre. The event will see participation from all major motorcycle brands, including iconic British firms Norton and Triumph.
The revamped Carole Nash Motorcycle Live at The NEC, Birmingham was attended by almost 100,000 people, despite taking place during the worst November weather conditions Britain has experienced for many years. The new-look nine-day event ran from 27 November to 5 December 2010 and has received strong praise from manufacturers, exhibitors and visitors alike. Honda UK returned to the Event after a one-year break and General Manager Steve Martindale has already hailed it a success:
Thousands of bike fans – including model and TV star Calum Best* – braved the freezing temperatures to attend the seventh day of Carole Nash Motorcycle Live at The NEC, Birmingham. Many would be dreaming of escaping to warmer climes on their two-wheeled machines, and what better place to plan the trip of a lifetime that the UK’s biggest motorcycle exhibition? In the Escape Zone sponsored by Yamaha Super Ténéré, visitors can find everything they need to head off into the sunset. Remember though folks, its the last couple of days of this years show so brave the snow and make the journey - we did!
See the World’s most powerful new 2011 bikes and the amazing Revolution show featuring iconic GP riders battling over motorcycle circuits at the London ExCel Centre. The Carole Nash MCN Motorcycle show is bringing the 'Greatest Show on Earth' to London ExCeL – 3rd- 6th February. With 35,000 visitors over the 4 days, the show is the biggest and best in London and the South East. With 130 exhibitors, the Show offers the latest machines from superbikes, tourers, commuters, off-roaders and scooters from BMW, Ducati, Honda, Harley-Davidson, Kawasaki, Triumph, Yamaha, and Victory.
Published in Competitions
Following the success of the new-look Motorcycle Live last year, the dates have been set for the 2011 Show. From Saturday 19th to Sunday 27th November, The NEC Birmingham will once again host the UK’s premier two-wheel exhibition. 2010 saw a complete transformation of the event with the introduction of exciting live and interactive features – from the Ramp’d Up Freestyle Motocross Arena to the Get On Learners Zone and the indoor Off-Road Experience.

Carole Nash, the UK’s favourite motorcycle insurance broker, is to introduce free security marking kits as a standard benefit not only on all new road and off-road policies, but also on renewals. The move comes after a successful trial of Carole Nash DNA+ at the end of last year, which saw thousands of satisfied customers apply the anti-theft measure to their cherished motorcycles. We think this is a great idea to help identify any stolen parts, and with so many of them rattling around the system we have to applaud Carole Nash for starting such an initiative.
