MIKE COLEMAN IN A FREE ADVERTISMENT FOR HIS SHOP ON QUEEN STREET MARKET RASEN SAYS: Guys, still haven't seen any of you in my shop (which a Mary Portas researcher described as glitzy and sexy). Market Rasen is one of only twelve out of hundreds of applicant towns to win government/ Portas project funding (nearly £100,000). I like to think the impression of my little shop (the newest in town) and business ethics played some part in this (albeit a very small one). So what could I do for you? Well if Richards Daytona was a 675, I could have supplied him with a maintenance free battery from a an established and recognised OEM motorcycle battery manufacturer for only £25. You could pay more than twice this for a similar battery at other dealers. We also supply
to order a whole load of quality German brands of luggage, luggage carrier/ baggage holders, protection bars, sissy bars, handlebars and chrome parts that are tailored to Hinckley model Triumph motorcycles. I've got a deal with Lincoln based Touch Global Bike who although you may never of heard of are probably the biggest UK online retailer of motorcycling products. My terms are that I can sell any of their products such as 56 litre top boxes (with mounting plate) for the same price as them which in this particular example is only £41.95. Would love to catch up with what's going on at the Lincs TOMCC and the kettles on.
First tour of the 2012 season. Scores: Triumph 3, BMW 1, Honda 1 and Suzuki 1. So sorry to hear that other brands on the Eb car park outnumber Triumph on club nights. On the return ferry we met a same size group of Brits all on BMW and they had been visiting the Mosel region where they say all the German bikers were riding Triumph.

MAG PETERBOROUGH – GOOD NEWS – SAFER ROADS Given how wonderful the weather is going to be this summer weekend (!), I thought I'd give you a break from European news and let you know something else gloriously British...
MAG is you, the members, and so much of what we achieve locally is when you do it.
Latest news is that Peterborough MAG have managed to convince Anglian Water and P'Boro Council to begin trials of composite non-slip manhole covers on June 25th, at sites chosen by local MAG members. This will have a huge impact in the region because so many of the slippery iron covers in the road are owned by the water companies. If Anglian Water are happy, and they see no reason why they won't be, (they just said no one had actually mentioned it...) they may consider rolling out non-slip technology as part of their standard maintenance and replacement schedule.
The other great news from P'Boro is that having convinced Enterprise PLC (who manage the council vehicle fleet) to fit MAG's 'Diesel Spills Kill' stickers to all their vehicles, Enterprise nationally asked for a meeting to see how they could roll out the scheme across the country and how they could, as a company, support MAG's Get A Grip campaign. Well done Dave and Tink from P'Boro MAG. A bit of local campaigning can bring national rewards.
Meanwhile, in deepest Devon, Alan Langmaid has been beavering away to include motorcycling in local policy and as a direct result (apart from now recognising how biking can help improve traffic flow and the environment for all) Totnes council has decided to also start fitting composite non-slip covers there too.
Further north, though not much, in North Somerset, local MAG folk have managed to get motorcycle parking in the Melrose car park on the Weston Super Mare sea front and ensure that details of where all motorcycle parking is, can now be found on the North Somerset Council websiteThe convenience of parking your bike somewhere right on the sea front is bettered only by the fact that the same council, who have embraced MAG's Get a Grip campaign, have now installed 8 more non slip covers in Aspen Park Rd in Weston.
Add this to other recent local parking successes, access to buslanes and of course the removal of motorcycle tolls from the Tyne and Humber river crossings and you can see that local action really pays dividends. Don't let anyone tell you MAG doesn't make a tangible difference on the ground!Have a good weekend and make sure you've got your waterproofs with you

FUN OF THE 40s DINNER DANCE - Saturday 16th - 6:30pmSaturday evening's 'Fun of the 40s' charity dinner-dance has a fantastic atmosphere that rivals the post-war victory parties. The authentic 1940s marquee is a great backdrop for the live swing band and 1940s disco.

There will be breath-taking aerial displays in the Sbach 300 and sunset aerobatics from the Swip Duo.
