Good luck! Is it a cycle shop or are you branching out?

Thanks!

It is bike hire and days out by bike so no change really but last year we were running it from a lock up and now we have a shop we can rent by the hour so we're hoping for more passing trade. Fingers crossed!

Thanks. The logo is a freebie from my very talented graphic designer friend in the UK.

All the best to you.Could do with you over here.Sardinia's a big Mtb centre but a nightmare to buy spares.We bring all ours out from the Uk.

Thanks! We use Wiggle for a lot of stuff as they do free delivery and are quite speedy. Their prices are OK too. Mind you, everything seems cheaper in the UK at the moment.

Hi Penny

Do you still have the old shop in Amandola as well Penny? We have some guests who are over just after Easter who have specifically asked about mountain biking. Of course I recommended you and they seemed quite keen so I would like to tell them where you are!

Thanks

Thanks very much!

No, we never had a shop in Amandola (a bit of a problem for us), we operated from a lockup near our house.

We are just in Sarnano now, with all our bikes and everything there. There is a map on our website if that helps.

Hi Penny, good luck with the new shop, will try to get over to meet you whe the shop opens, and to pick up some publicity for our guests.

warm regards

David and Pam

Just a little reminder to say we hope to see some of you on Saturday.

We didn't manage to open on 2nd April (licence hold ups) so Saturday will be our first day. We don't have a sign yet (permission hold ups) but we do have lots of publicity in the windows so hopefully we won't be too hard to find.

You're welcome to try the bikes and for those with young kids, try out the trailer (all the tots LOVE it). Better do that before the wine though!:jiggy:

Didn't manage to pop in for your opening when we were out at Easter and when we went to Sarnano I hadn't take your address and couldn't find you (tourist office was closed as well). Will pop in to pick up some leaflets to leave in our house. Hope the new venture is going well.

Hi Chris,

hopefully we're pretty easy to find. Just walk towards the old town and we are opposite the jewellers, ice cream parlour and antique shop before the arch to enter the old town.

We'll hopefully have the sign up next week!

Just to let you know that we're closed for a few days 15-19th May and don't open Wednesdays.

Hopefully see you soon.

Would the sign have been sourced through an Italian by any chance?? :bigergrin:

Hope it's going well Penny.

Thanks! Yes it was but they are very quick - just 3 days. It's the permissions that took the time......
