Ghost Bikes is holding the grand opening of its huge new showroom in Preston tomorrow (10 March). The free family open day will feature stunt shows, music, food, drinks and giveaways. TT racer Lee Johnston will also be present.
The 11,000 sq.ft showroom is on two floors, selling motorcycle and motocross gear, and complements its substantial online business. It features a 120-seater café and parking for 200 to 300 cars out front.
“The site is really good because it’s on a biking route and it’s right next to the motorways so it is easily accessible,” said owner Adam Patel, who explained that Ghost Bikes’ customers come from the north-west and further afield.
“The new showroom is a 1980s building, formerly a bathroom showroom, which we have skinned. We put in a new floor, new stairs. Everything we have tried to do inside is slightly different. It’s more customer focused.”
