I'd be willing to ask Mick if he'd come across - it's a long way though so I'd want to make sure it was a big group and that people were definitely going to be there/pay up :)

Tell him to come for the weekend and let his hair down. We have had 50 plus bikes here

Annoyingly my crap phone didn't capture the stage where my bike was covered in white foam, was going to make some witty remark about the snow/riding past a marshmallow factory. Oh well.

I'll be going back in the spring/early summer to have it done again. Very pleased at the results, cost £60 for the clean and spray, and all the coffee I could hold.

Snow

Glad you liked the treatment snow. Here's a pic of a pan I did the other week covered in the foam

Thanks for sharing the pic, Stibbs - Mick (who did my treatment for me) has a Pan in his garage, I'd never seen one up close before, that must have taken a lot of work - they're huge!!

Just had mine done by Jon Holloway near Chesham... and a thoroughly nice chap he was too!

Before...





During...



After...





And after I'd ridden about 15 minutes down the road to get some lunch! Proving that nothing lasts :)



Still, 'twas never about the clean look for me, it was about getting the bike protected, so I'm sure under the new layer of dirt there is plenty of ACF-50 keeping the bike in good condition. Plus, lunch was good!
