bmf Kelso BikeFest is Good to Go!
Union Borders showground, Kelso, 10/11 July 2010

The bmf 's Kelso Bikefest, now in its tenth year at this popular Scottish venue, has gained an enviable reputation as much more than a bike show. Set in Kelso's Union Borders showground on the banks of the river Tweed, its location in the border's fantastic biking country has made this a sure-fire draw for many, both north and south of the border.

Compact, lively and in a great setting this year's arena entertainment includes the amazing Steve Colley and his all new 2010 Tour, The Kelso Pipe Band, Best in Show competition, Cavalcade of clubs and Joe Peace fire stuntman extraordinaire!

In addition, anyone who joins the bmf over the show weekend will be entered into a prize draw and the lucky winner will receive a signed replica helmet of one of the stars of this year's Moto GP series!

With over 50 trade stands and an ALL NEW indoor trade exhibition area, Kelso Bikefest promises to be a show not to be missed.

Those making a weekend of it by camping at the show can enjoy three nights of camping, a disco and live bands on both the Friday and Saturday nights, including Needless, The Band from County Hell and headlining, the brilliant AB/CD.

Kelso has always been a fantastic show from which to start a mini break and spend a few days touring the open roads of Scotland, so with arena entertainment during the day and live bands in the evenings what better way to kick-start your trip?
