Hi guys I'm up in the West highlands had some lovely "dry" weather and just my luck, a bloody puncture on a 400mile old new tyre! I've plugged it and from previous Scotland puncture experience there ain't much in the way of ride in tyre services. We're based in Aviemore for next three days then head over to Edinburgh, is there any tyre companies that could do me a new Pirelli Scorpion en route Thanks in advance Nige
your not a million miles from inverness so maybe mitchels 01463 233478 BRC (muir of ord) 01463 871990 it would give you a good excuse to fire up to ullapool while yer at it
Thanks finm, gave Mitchels a call but have nothing suitable, I've got a couple of options for Edinburgh on Thursday Nige
If you're heading south try strathearn tyres in Crieff 01764655904 www.criefftyres.co.uk/ Ive lost track of the number of years ive used them as they're usually the cheapest around. If you're staying overnight in Edinburgh make sure your bikes are off the street and locked away. There is a major problem with bike theft. Also Ian Murray, I've not used him but he gets a good name http://ianmurraymotorcycles.co.uk/
Many thanks Columbus, going to head for Crief on the way to Edinburgh, spoke with Jim and he's getting a pair of tyres in (fronts got over 5k on it) will get em fitted Thursday thanks for heads up re Edinburgh situation, hotel looks to have secure parking and is a bit out of town! Nige
Had 2 tyres fitted at Strathearn tyres this morning, top Bloke Jim sourced tyres and rode in, fitted in about 30 mins, Edinburgh now overnight, @Columbus thanks again, a great help!
