I need help from Blenheim peeps for Motomox, Klim, and other stuff

[Trials Rider]

Hi Guys

I am traveling to Blenheim on Tuesday through to Thursday for a conference (boring :weep:)

I want to make contact with a motorbike shop to have a local dude offer our Mox products to ADV riders

What I want to know, who is the best bugger around town that you go to, your help would be much appreciated.

Also if you are keen to look at anything from the Mox range of gear www.motomox.co.nz let me know by Monday night and I will chuck it in and we can catch up.

I will have the new 2015 Klim Badlands gear with me just to try and look cool anyway.

Either pm me off here or 021 472 853 and we can make a plan.

Trials Centre would be the pick of the bunch, Motocare have lost the Yamaha dealership and seem to be
sizing down......

How'd you get on?

How'd you get on?

Ok well where do I start, the weather was great and I had a nice meal out.

I went to the Suzuki shop which was pretty underwhelming, it really is a car dealership with a side room to put four motorbikes in, nice people though.

I also went to see Peter Grinter, left him my card to have a look at the website, nice guy but he is more farm oriented with the side by sides and four wheelers.

Last I called in to see Brendan at Trials Centre (I bought my 2011 GasGas EC300 of Wadsy) good bugger, I left him my card too, he has some nice Sherco's in there, nearly had to buy more flowers for Deb and explain that new blue bike in the shed.

Wadsy is certainly the main player in the town with the most product and enthusiasm to offer riders which is good, at least there is one shop offering a good range of product but as he is mainly trials and a little enduro it is still a wee way away from our core focus of Adventure riding but no probs if he needs something he will call.

My focus is to help them with inquires rather than push them into unfamiliar territory as Adventure riding has a unique set of challenges and that is gear doesn't have to be the lightest, smallest, thinnest etc, the overriding factor is that it has to be extremely durable to take longer run times, constant vibration and that is quite different from Trials or Enduro.

Anyway I had a good trip and it was good to catch up with Wadsy again.
