๐ฃ IMPORTANT UPDATE - HIT PAUSE ๐ฃ
Weโve had a great summer, made lots of new friends and learned a heck of lot about the wants & needs of the fantastic biker community! This first year was always going to be a leap of faith and itโs a leap weโre very happy we took. It was also Step 1 of a journeyโฆ if it didnโt work out, the journey would end there. If it went well, Step 2 would be even better.
It went well. Very well. So we made a start on Step 2 earlier this summer.
This next phase will include the conversion of another building, more retail space, proper toilets and hopefully the long-awaited cafe (subject to change of use being granted). Weโve been working part-time on aspects of this plan already, but itโs reached the point where we need focus on it fully and deliver some upgrades in time for our Autumn/Winter events programme, which starts with Graham Sykes and Force of Nature visiting us on 25th October, and continues with Guy Redshawโs Cannondale Dirt Bike evening on 22nd November.
So, with an exciting off-season ahead of us, and the need to be able to host these events indoors, weโre hoping youโll forgive us a temporary but necessary closure whilst we crack on with the improvements to make HB even better.
Weโll be closed on the next 4 weekends, which are:
Saturday 27th & Sunday 28th September
Saturday 4th & Sunday 5th October
Saturday 11th & Sunday 12th October
Saturday 18th & Sunday 19th October
We will then re-open on Saturday 25th October with a bang๐ฅ kicking off an exciting winter with Grahamโs visit and following that with lots of plans to keep the biker community entertained, supplied and most importantly, in touch, through winter.
If youโve got anything pre-ordered, or thereโs anything you need whether thatโs parts & oil or clothing & gifts, weโll still be here and weโll still be able to help, we just ask that you give us a call, email or message on socials so that we can get the place ship-shape and safe for your visit (or make arrangements to serve you from the trade counter in the fuel department). Weโll also be working on an online shop where thereโll be the option to collect orders from HB Fuels Office, but weโll make another announcement once thatโs up and running.
Thank you again for your support. Itโs been truly immense and means so much to us as a family. Hopefully youโll forgive us this little interruption to normal service but please know weโre making the place bigger and better for this wonderful community to enjoy.
