Default Chicago International Motorcylce show

Just wondering if anyone is going or has gone in the past. Just got the flyer from Yamaha. Looks like it's Feb 9 - 11

I was going to try and make it, but my wife is expecting a child on the 12th, so that's cutting it a little close.

However, when I told her that the show was traveling with one of Vale's GP bikes, she said that I was excused to go the show. That in it's self, earned her some cool points. But I think I want to be around for my son's birth.

I went last year. Don't know if I would go again or not. Good time, cool seeing the bikes, but it's not like you can actually ride anything, and it's not a whole lot of anything I haven't seen before. I could see going every other year or something like that, but I can't see there being that much there new this year (wouldn't mind seeing the 1098 in person though if that's going to be there)

I'm planning on going sunday, I have to work on Sat. A friend of mine went to the one in NOVI near detroit a couple weeks ago and he said it was better than last years, and he wants to go with us to chicago. I wouldn't go again if he didn't say that. But maybe he just said that because he gets to see a tri-color 1098 before his is in at the dealership.
