Well, I've found out why my emails weren't getting returned, as they say below 2009 cost them a fortune. Shame, it was a good show.

From their website:

Unfortunately the Adrian Flux Classic Car & Bike Show WILL NOT be taking place in 2010.

Primarily self financing, with limited support or assistance from elsewhere the main aim of our shows has always been to provide a good, family day out at a relaxed, informal classic car and bike show 'for enthusiasts, by enthusiasts' whilst supporting local charities where we can.

Although we drag as many of our friends and relatives in to help 'on the day', there has only been the two of us to pull the whole event together and, with those funny little masochistic tendancies within us to urge us on, we have indeed thoroughly enjoyed bringing this show to all that have shared it with us.

Sadly, having taken a massive hit in 2009 following the unfortunate turn of events, we simply cannot cover the up front costs involved in organising a show of this size this year so have reluctantly had to take the decision not to proceed for 2010,

We would however like to thank all those that have supported us and made this show the amazing success it was. If you would like us to keep you updated for any future events or associated activities, please take a moment to register for our latest news bulletins.

We hope you all have a fantastic season and perhaps might get time this year to go out and exhibit more ourselves! :)

with very best wishes

Greg & Jo

Aww thats a great shame. its sad when real enthusiats try hard to organise a show, but take a hit when the finances don't add up.
