Was lucky enough last week to get a nose around the factory and can safely say it was one of the best days ever.
Would seem it's a regular thing so If you get the opportunity I strongly urge you to go for a gander or pester your LBS to ask Hope nicely.
So many shiny things and a great history in our sport topped off by being a bunch of really nice guys. Couldn't stop grinning all week.
I'd be interested in having a gander - is it only via LBS or suppliers then? Or is there a way joe public can book on? Even for a small fee? I can bring along pictures of my hope brakes to prove I'm a fanboi?!

Do you need to get out more?
LOL, I'm not sure. Said they have them every week.
One of there riders took us for a spin over Gisburn afterwards and found myself polishing all my Hope bits encase he checked my bike over.
If I wasn't before I'm a fanboy now.
EDIT:
Yes, yes I do.Do you need to get out more?

as factory tours go, it has to be up there with the best. It's a pretty cool place full of very cool things.
I've never had the "official" tour as such, but have worked there several times as a supplier.
the museum bit on the ground floor is a treat.
I can think of both better and worse things to do but one day i will indulge in the tour
Do you book or soemthing?
Just spoke to the chap who organised it (our local LBS) and he just called them up and asked if he could come along on a tour. He told us about it/booked it back in Feb.
