Ian McDermott

Having been with us since leaving school some 35 years ago, there is little if anything that Ian doesn't know about bikes, blessed with an uncanny ability to remember model codes and specifications, he should be nicknamed Bikepedia ! His two wheeled pride and joy is a 1965 Lambretta Li 150 which takes pride of place in his lounge - we can’t think of a better room odouriser mmmmmm 2 stroke heaven :-)

Sales Executive

Linda Dunbar

It’s never an easy job being a Sales Administrator, salesmen can be sooooo demanding. Add in some IT difficulties (no names, no pack drill) and the job becomes a little bit more taxing. Linda takes this all in her stride, is probably your first point of contacting us by phone and also has the most important job in the dealership as our 'tuck monitor'
