This week we have been back to the roundabout at the end of the bypass, leading to the port. There has STILL been nothing done about this huge pothole.
We are now at the end of practice week for the TT’s with race week commencing next week.
It is a massive road defect and very dangerous for any bikers that are travelling to the port.

People constantly ask when Graham’s retiring … Probably never!! Here he is - yes that’s him ‘on the tools’ under the camper - doing one of the things he’s best at; good deeds!!

This customer was recovered to us, needing a tyre after a blowout. Travelling for a holiday, they came to leave and realised that when being pulled onto the recovery truck, it had caused an issue with the handbrake.
We didn’t have any space in the service centre to fix it that same day so Graham temporarily sorted the issue out so the customer could at least get to where they needed to go that day.

We all know he’s extremely grumpy, and sarcasm is his specialist skill BUT one thing he has always done and always does is whatever he can to help. 👍🏼

This vehicle was recovered to us after hitting a pothole (!!!) and the shocker collapsing. It also ripped the ABS sensor and snapped the drop link.
The snapped shocker has rubbed on the tyre and caused the damage seen in the pictures, damaging a pretty much brand new tyre.

New spring, shocker, top mount and tyre needed. ABS sensor and drop links also replaced.

And Lancashire County Council are wondering why motorists are so angry about the state of the roads… 👀

☀️ Bank Holiday Monday… most people are at BBQs or in beer gardens… meanwhile we’re halfway up ladders painting a garage in 25 degree heat wondering where our life choices went wrong 🤣🎨

But when the top local garage finally gets a day closed (they ONLY shut Sundays and Bank Holidays 😳), you grab the chance and crack on 💪

Fresh coat going on today ready for reopening tomorrow morning 🚗🔥
C B Maintenance & Son, no rest for the wicked😅.

Hope everyone is enjoying this sunshine ☀️.

Ps Ace’s flies broke on his work shorts, hence the trousers 🤣🥵

The importance of tyre checks…
Even though your tread might be legal, cracking and perishing can happen when your tyres are of a certain age or when you only do low mileage. It’s important to be aware of as it increases your risk of having a blowout or mishapen tyres.

We always recommend that you get your tyres checked once a month and before long journeys!

Just a quick Pothole Patrol update - The Glentworth and Winthorpe potholes opposite Westgate Tyres have FINALLY been filled- Only temporary fixes BUT better than nothing - We will keep an eye on these to make sure the temporary fixes become proper fixes.

It’s only taken 2 features on the BBC to get them filled… 👀
Thanks to Tommy for the heads up, and thank you to the Emma and Sophie stand ins as we’ve been too busy to properly film 🤪 (And my daughter has been desperate to be on Pothole Patrol) - Wait until the ending!!! 😍
