Cheshire Area - Apparel?!
Hoping some locals can point me in the direction of some good apparel stores in and around Cheshire? Struggling to find anywhere that carries a good range of clothing, helmets and general bike accessories?
Could do with a new lid, and need to get the other half kitted up this year too...

J & S Accessories in northwich is decent,
Dainese D-Store store in manchester is worth a look youve got Hein Gericke in manchester near strangeways (salford way) bike gear isnt bad in ashton although they stock a lot of RST gear thouse are my usual haunts |

J&S looks like the sort of place I was looking for, similar to place I used to go when I was back down south, cheers for that, might take a wander down there this weekend...

If you'd have asked me yesterday I would have been up for it, but we've just made plans today

Great tip, exactly the place I was looking for AND they have a 20% off ALL stock on at the moment... so left with two new lids, and a bunch of other stuff!

Glad to hear they sorted you out
Still new to riding so im shying away from the group thing until I've grown some more confidence I couldn't trust myself to not try and keep up |

If your looking for bike gear the BSB at Oulton park has a good selection of stands which are cheaper than the shops, the only problem is getting it home if you give the card a good hiding. Their are a couple of bike shops round Preston way that have a good accessory / clothing range not bad prices to.
Don't worry about trying to keep up i have only been back riding for a short while after a 25 year break , i am defernatley sedate not quite 50 pence corners but not to far off. I always have a look at the back tyre of the lads i am riding with its a good indication of their ability, the smaller the margin of wear to the edge then the quicker they are. I have a good 30mm of virgin tyre on each side |

Went to the Dainese shop in Manchester on Saturday, got some nice stuff in there, it doesn't cheap but the quality is good.
The lady called Lisa is really helpful. |

Spent my gear allowance for the year, just waiting for the Ducati Manchester boys to get settled before blowing another load of cash on parts & accessories... some days I wish I bought a bike a cared a lot less about!

When the new shop opens in Sale do you know if they are having an opening bash, they had a barbeque and band on last September at Lymm, the new shop is right on the edge of a residential area i can see their being a class action nuisance claim in the near future.

Once opened we will be having a big party and Carl Fogarty is already one name on the guest list. Please join our E-Newsletter to get your personal invite.
That was the last update from the 18th. Really hoping they open up soon as I want my bits in time for the weekender!
