The Carole Nash MCN Motorcycle Show, in association with The Telegraph, is the capitals largest biking event and gives riders the chance to meet their biking heroes as well as seeing action-packed stunts and the latest 2012 bikes and accessories from all the major manufacturers ranging from Ducati Panigale to the Triumph Explorer. The event also features the jaw-dropping Michelin Revolution Show, in which World trials icon Dougie Lampkin and TT champion John McGuinness will go head-to head over a specially constructed course that tests both skill and nerve.

Commenting on the ride out, he said:
“The Carole Nash MCN Motorcycle Show is a highlight of the biking event calendar and it will be great to arrive at ExCeL in style, in a convoy with hundreds of other bikers.
