Yes, Steve. The Sussex section will have a stand as usual, just inside on the left in the main hall which is the first 'barn' after you ride through the payment gate to the bike public parking area inside the chain link fencing. We normally have about 10 to 15 bikes on the stand (weather dependant) - room for yours if you bring it in, shiny or scruffy it'll be welcome; after all, every year we 'welcome' Roy Bellett with one of his unmolested beauties :rofl: and half a dozen of the E. London and Essex Hell's Anginas who ride down and add their bikes to the display.
If you bring the bike onto the AMC Sussex Section stand in the hall (with engine stopped) you are expected by the organisers not to leave before the prize-giving which is at around 2.30 to 3 p.m.

Good to see the club line up today & nice to chat!
Big thanks to Pete for the cold start tips - I tried them and it started 2nd kick! Wahey!
So I've torn up the for sale sign begun after it took me over half hour to start her this morning!
Fingers crossed for the next time after its been standing for a while....

good to hear it started , 2nd kick is pretty good . I always only start counting after the priming kick(s) that don't count . so in my eyes it started first kick
