Permanently closed.

We are an established small, family business which was started in 1973 with our first shop in Lincoln Road, Peterborough by David’s parents Mike and Margaret and they were later joined by partners, Chas and Pat. David used to help out in the evenings and weekends learning everything from his dad. David’s parents then took on our current location in 1983, leaving Chas and Pat to run the Lincoln Roa

d shop who have since retired and sold the business. David joined his parents on a permanent basis in 1983 and now runs the shop with the help of his wife Sheena and son Scott. We are both cyclists, though some of us not as regular as we should be!! We have all raced or time trialled in our day and David completed an Ironman in 1993. We may be small in numbers but more than make up for this with our knowledge and enthusiasm! The shop is located on a housing estate on the outskirts of Peterborough so we have plenty of free parking outside and are close to the A1 and Ferry Meadows country park.

A few years ago, we used to attend races at the then, new BMX track. I have just found the high class advertising board we used at the time. There are several brands not around anymore. How many do you remember?
