no idea, just closed

Shame these places are closing their doors, my local off road specialist closed last year, just not enough folks learning to ride anymore. We appear to be a dying breed, people are too afraid they might get hurt. The local youff seem to be into hot hatch and tiny sports cars FFS!

I deliberately bought my jacket and trousers in august from my local bike shop deliberately because I can pop in for odd bits or just a brew. I know I could have saved a little buying on line but its not always worth it.

I could not have tied on five or six jackets and as many Kevlar jeans with my other bike kit to make sure it all fitted just so on the internet. Or popped out to the car park to try em on my bike.

Shame.

 

just been to Ilkestone to see my painter and they have def gone bump
