Local knowledge
Riders touring Scotland often come through Carlisle at the start or end of the trip. If the bike breaks down on the way home and you’re a long way from where you live, we can take it to a Carlisle garage, or arrange a long-distance recovery home. You hear the price first.
The A69 and the A7 are long, quiet roads at night. If you stop, get well off the carriageway, switch on your hazard lights if the bike still has power, and stand somewhere safe away from the bike.
