Northampton ….. Any bike shops worth a visit?

Failing bike shops anything else worth looking out for?

I have a day there tomorrow with a 20 month old 🙂

erm….there’s a Leisure Lakes in Daventry which is only a 15min drive or so away.

Pitsford Cycles is alright and if the weather’s any good its nice for a walk around the reservoir.

Get some shoes 🙂

Do Church’s still have a factory shop? My Loakes are looking a tad tired.

Depends which way you’re coming from, the shop Grafham Water is worth a visit en route.

The main tourist attraction is the Express lift tower. Enjoy 😆

I can nearly see that from the MIL’s house 😆

So then shoes it is 🙂

There’s a new skate/BMX thingy. And Woburn isn’t far if the 20 month old wants to point at Daddy falling off on a myriad of dirt jumps…

You have my sympathy.

As over played as these videos are, I think [http://youtu.be/ifLmPl4Bvag]Hitler sums it up best[/url]

In all honestly your best bet is Brixworth country park. Lovey reservoir, Nice bike shop, good play park and a café that sells ok coffee and ice cream.

Bike shop is Pitsford Cycles.

Well I messed that up didn’t I?

Factory shoe shops in the Northampton area

Don’t be a STW drone and buy some nice shoes.

Go and see Nat & Justin at Joyride Cycles in Weedon, just down the road from Northampton. Take some biscuits, and have a kill a bit of time! (and try not to come out of the shop about £3k lighter and with a carbon fibre road racing bike………. 😉

Phil Corley in Milton Keynes – 30 minute drive.

Get yourself down the King Billy for the day they even have crisps for the little un 😉
They do have a climbing wall ( pinnacle) which is good… Not much good for kids under 5 though?
You could go to Salcey forest which is good for kids and has a treetop walk that’s about 10mins from Northamton and it has really flat bike trails so a trailer or bike seat is fine. Oh and the skatepark is quality.

Don’t be a STW drone and buy some nice shoes.

Err… why not? Why shouldn’t I buy a nice pair of shoes from my county of birth?

Thanks for the link BTW 😀
