Bike valet day @ Adventure Bike Wartehouse

[dakarDude]

Great seeing you all today, and cheers for the brew and hot dog

Tarry / Doc - sorry I missed you, arrived later on after you left.

Stevie, if you can get AYB back in December, I'm definitely gonna get my 1200 done.

May even try and leave the A.B. Warehouse car park without droppin' my bike next time

A Yorkshire 'Ta'

Wanted to say a big thank you to you all at ABW.
Will rob a bank next time I come over, would love to be able to afford at least one of each product you guys sell.

Funds just stretched to the HID conversion, I wasn't too disappointed with the original bulb but the HID makes a massive difference and despite Jonnos reservations re ease of fitting on my bike, he made a superb job of it - thanks again - Hope you can do the same for my mate, the Kiwi in the Porsche, he just bought a Tiger1050 this pm and will be in to see you for HID

ABW - well recommended

Thanks to everybody that made the effort to come down to the warehouse today, whether it was just to get your bike 'winterised', just to have a nosey, or just to get a free hotdog Everybody made the day special in one way or another. At one point I looked out from the workshop and saw a sea of GS's, then I heard the rumble of another group of bikes arriving. At that moment I felt pretty overwhelmed to be honest......just a small moment in time that I'll remember for quite a while I hope you all liked the warehouse and enjoyed coming down....long live the dream

really enjoyed the hour or so i had at your place steve thank's for getting it together. i was gutted that i couldn't spend longer there but did have a really important appointment to keep.
again i found the atmosphere very relaxed and friendly and ended up having a great chat with guy that i had never met before and (told you i would)
have forgotten his name so the guy who among other things is a sound mixer send me a pm if you read this will ya.
looking forward to the next get together
cheers steve and jono.

[mikeTR]

Cheers Steve, Jono

It was great to have a nosey and see the great set up you guys have.

 

[Ted]

Echo all the above. Had a great day met to loads of people, Sue and I chatted to Taz about her trip to Alaska, awesome, and only passed her test last year.
Got some goodies spotted a few more as well but got dragged out of the showroom, like a kid out of Toys R Us..
Jono and Steve, great job and deserve to do well. Go see them.

Well worth the trip over the Pennines.

The hot dogS were very nice although fried onions would have just finished them off tidy like. The brewS were Ok too ..all of them as was the pop. Oh yea...them biscuits were the dogs too.

Well that's about it I think., thanks again look forward to the next "one".

Oh yea, I knew there was summat else...The HIDS conversion...

Fookin Ace thanks Jono ...spent the rest of the day after leaving ABW bimbling around the Peak District until darkness fell...( well, I just had too didn't I)...which gave me chance to try out the HID..and as expected it's bloody awesome. Bloody cheap at the price and didn't have to get my hands "dirty" too.


Also nice to meet up with a few Tossers.....Mick from Chesterfield, Skygod, and MrIfan to name but a few.

The bike valeting looked really really tempting..what a cracking job they do to the bikes...but a little voice in my head kept telling me not to be a twat and get it weshed messen..But it IS very tempting....so I bought a tin of ACF 50 as a compromise


Nice place you got there...Cheers,

A friend of mine had told his wife:

'Ray is popping round later, after his bike has been valeted or something. Stupid git thinks it's going to look like new'

So I turned up at 4pm and he says:

'Fcuk me it looks like new'
