This is a hard one to write, but after 5 years of being back fixing bikes. I am calling the end.
In October I had a massive downturn in business, it completely flatlined for a week (I had no calls, messages or emails). It forced me to go and get a ‘proper’ job working for someone else, not in the bike industry. The cocking about and completely unprofessional approach by our government ( ) in relation to the budget stopped people spending altogether. I did envisage working part time and then doing bikes in between however I came across a very convenient well paid job on my doorstep which was full time. Trying to manage the bike repair whilst working full time has proved impossible and as such I am calling the end to WL Bikecare. It’s hugely sad and it hurts me deeply writing this as I tried so hard to make it work.
I am really sorry to everyone who I am letting down but I just simply do not have the time.
I’ll still be out riding occasionally so may see some of you out and about.
Thank you for giving me the opportunity to work on your bikes, the good times truly outweighed the bad, Tara a bit 🫡
