With that the case, if you are on twitter, become our friend! From the latest bikes to hit the shop floor to the latest projects that we are working on and general happenings in the shop its all on twitter!!!!

Another great Friday lunchtime find, this time round its not a cold slice of pizza or a spilt cup of coffee over the desk but its Adam Cramer in a crowded Philadelphia garage who revives vintage motorcycles and the American tradition of grease-stained self-reliance.

Battistinis, Retro Revival latest updates . . . . .

Battistinis, Retro Revival latest updates . . . . .


Well this weekends ‘Retro Revival’ is nearly upon us but we thought that knocking it up another gear even before the event has even swung open its doors would be in order! With that the case it really should be a no-brainer where to go this Saturday evening if 1950’s glamour, live music, dance, vintage fashion custom motorsickles, hotrods, and good times are what you like!!!!!


Just confirmed moments ago is a second band for the evenings delights, “ The Aaron Keylock Blues Band” . Aaron has recently worked with the likes of Joe Bonamassa, Sandi Thom, Nine Below Zero, The Quireboys, Hamilton Loomis (USA) and Sherman Robertson (USA). He plays the top Central London blues bars every week and has a London based following. He is currently out playing his own gigs and small festivals.



Also just confirmed that we are very proud to announce is yet another burlesque performer to the stage for the evening , so may we welcome “Miss Anticipation” to the party! Her style is quirky, silly, cute but sexy, often combining masculine and feminine roles with the occasional muscle pose thrown in for good measure!



And last but by no mean least is the great menu that we have just put together that you can choose from that is of course all included in the ticket price of only £12.

- The Blarney Melt -

Turkey melt with cheese and bacon in a seeded bun served with fries

- The Shamrock burger -

Cheese burger, salsa and salad with fries

- Craic Curry -

Vegetable Curry with Jacket potato


These additions to the evening alongside the list of happenings already planned is truly making this ‘St Patricks Party’ one that we truly are looking forward to, ours is a Guinness, see you on Saturday!!!!!

Battistinis, Gar Wood Story . . . . .

Battistinis, Gar Wood Story . . . . .

Garfield Wood never intended to go into the boat building business. His goal was to personally set every speed record on water and be recognized as the world's speedboat king. However, as he set forth to achieve these goals, he was influenced by colleagues and friends and as a result built the world's finest line of production recreational sport boats.


Reason for this post, simply really! We have just returned from a ‘nice long test ride’ down to the beach (funny enough its on the nicest days of the year so far!) and also because Gar wood is simply a legend and deserves to be known about!
