i am thinking of starting my own bike club in west didsbury manchester, i can offer free motorcycle repair advice as i am a car/bike engineer and like to get my hands dirty, a free to use workshop which includes a ramp. the workshop is heated and has a music system just bring music. i can also store about 7 bikes in the winter months. so if you know nothing about bikes or even a lot and want to get more from your ride, and have great days and nights out get in touch. if enough join i will make it a proper side patch club.
I'd love to learn more about how to look after my bike, how to clean the callipers under supervisions would be a good start. Alas Manchester, for me, is a tad far for regular attendance. I'm sure there's plenty like me that would just at the chance though ;p
