I worked in the bike trade for about 10 years in the UK, ran a couple of London stores and even had my own shop for a while. When i came back to NZ I worked for Mike Harvey for a brief time..

So would I work in the bike trade again [note: I dont work in it now]

Well yes it was great fun, and the people you meet are awesoeme but in here in NZ there is not a lot of money in the business, you need to be in it for the love, so not to great when it comes to paying the mortgage... but was awesoem fun .. and if your young no family and want to eat sleep and drink motorcycles then get you application in today! its a great lifestyle..

Thats my 2c worth ..
