Passed it so many times. Today returning from Chester i decided i would have a look see.
Bill Smiths, Triumph, Yam, Suzi dealer........but mainly Triumph.
Triumph have some very cool looking bikes. The only one i liked was the 1200 fancy Scrambler thing, only problem is it don't come with a ladder.

It's VERY tall! Nice looking bike but it must surely limit sales when only proper big people can touch the ground. One of our Triumph owners group asked to take one out while his bike was being serviced and almost dropped it, putting a toe down on some gravel in a car park. Afterwards he told me he hadn't realised how difficult it was to manage compared with bikes he could get his feet down on. I felt like saying told you so.

Have you been to the factory Bob?

Long wait for a tour, but it’s a pretty good day out (have to book the tour, but the cafe and shop are open to all)
