With over half the year already gone, 2018 has been proving a busy one
for the Dave Barkshire team.
Back in June we celebrated 35 years in the business at the Dave
Barkshire Motorcycle Centre. Since opening his first shop in Lenwade in 1983,
Dave Barkshire has become a big name across Norfolk, and it was brilliant to
celebrate this achievement with so many of you. The day was a great success,
raising over £500 for the Children’s Acute Transport Service.
In May, we made the decision to open our popular Hit The Dirt Enduro
Practice Track on a regular fortnightly basis at weekends throughout the summer
months, to make it easier for you all to plan your sessions. We’ll keep you
updated via Facebook (www.facebook.com/HitTheDirtUK ) as to which weekend is which, with regular
reminders as to when we’re open or closed. If you’ve not tried out the track as
yet, then add it to your summer to-do list – we’re sure you’ll have a fantastic
time!
In April we showcased the fabulous KTM 790 Scalpel. This is a super agile,
super powerful machine with precision handling, and we had good fun announcing
the demo, with Dave dressing up for the occasion!
Our Motorcycle Training Centre has been kept busy, with many new riders
joining the Dave Barkshire Hall of Fame with Mod 1 and Mod 2 passes! Back in
February, however, tests came to a temporary halt when snow arrived, causing a
bit of a Norfolk whiteout. Whether you looking at taking your CBT, Mod 1 or 2, DAS
or a refresher course, make this your summer goal and give us a call.
Back to the present and we find ourselves in sweltering temperatures. Remember
to wear full protective gear, even on the hottest days to keep safe
(check out our Motorcycle Centre for your kit) and keep well hydrated when
riding to help you stay alert.
We’ve had a fantastic 2018 so far, we look forward to sharing the rest of it
with you all!
