Stuck at home? Nothing to do? Scootering is here to help!

by

We may be stuck at home for the time being, but it certainly doesn’t mean we have to stop enjoying our scooters.

These brilliant scootering companies are still open for business, keeping you building , repairing and most of all, having a good time during lockdown.

BeedSpeed

Beedspeed’s mission during the Covid-19 pandemic is to assist all scooterist’s throughout the UK and the world in the best way they possibly can… Stay open, hold more stock, and ship orders as quickly as possible.

Why is this? Firstly, if you have been furloughed, or are isolating, you can stay busy in the garage, and stay away from the other half, thus reducing divorce rates amongst the community. Secondly, some of you still need your scoot to get to work.

Lastly, you need to get your scooter ready for the rally season, once it gets under way, and what better excuse is there than now to pick up your spanners, and get round to that rebuild you always told yourself you never had time for.

They are open online and on the phone, as normal. Stay safe, stay busy in the garage, and get your scoot ready!


Carnaby Scooters

Carnaby Scooters has quickly adapted to a new way of working which will continue and add to the Carnaby Experience after this international emergency over.

Their online shop now has an improved online shopping experience making it easier to locate and select your items with lots more items now available.

You can also select any scooter online and pay only a £99 fully refundable secure payment to hold it until after all this blows over.

With the Royal Alloy Tigara Grande on its way together with the second delivery of GP300’s what better time to secure yours than now and beat the rush with your Royal Alloy Superstore.  

Richard would like to take this opportunity to wish you and your family well through these unprecedented times. Together we will ride through this.
