I use the P "program" option on my Sony 828 ("vintage!") to force a
higher ISO. Lighting at bike shows generally blows, but museum
lighting is much better.
OT on your OT - I've learned to try to shoot the builder's name first
(headbadge, downtube or booth banner), then a full bike picture, then
the details. The full-bike picture usually has a blown-out highlight
right across the builder's name ("Biloxi? Bildung? Bilenky?")  I'm
always surprised by the cool stuff I completely missed when I was
actually standing in front of the bike.

I also like to take pictures (bandito portraiture) of people at
museums and parades, but I've never done it at bike shows.
