Folks,
I'm paying a flying (work) visit to the UK this week and want to get myself a new set of leathers, given the absolute lack of variety here in Brisbane Australia.

Can anyone point me to any shops in the Surrey area that has a decent variety of bike gear? In particular I am looking for AStars or maybe Dainese.

Cheers
Palooka

im afraid i cant as i dont live down that neck of the woods but thought id say hi anyway, random as it sounds im actually going to see an immagration officer today about applying for a visa to get into Australia, my uncle and his family live north of Brisbane in Hervey bay (bit quiet but nice house).

Be good to know if there is a monster scene over there in Brisbane as thats where id be heading and also any other good info etc

There's an Infinity Motorcycles in Farnborough and one in Guildford.

The Farnboro one does lots of Dainese stuff as well as Alpinestars. And there's a Hein Gericke just down the road. they do Alpinestars as well.
(I don't think Guildford does Dainese.)

(this is not a recommendation, I haven't been there for a while and don't know what the service is like)

There is a healthy Monster scene in Brissy, Have look here to hook up with a few locals: http://www.ducatimonster.org/smf/index.php?board=34.0

If you get a chance for a ride when you are out head for the Sunshine Coast hinterland. It's a couple of hours from Hervey Bay (which is the mainland town that is the launching point to Fraser Island) but worth it for the scenery and roads.

I'm flying into and out of Heathrow and am staying in Farnham while I am in town if that helps anyone.

I'm also hoping to get to the last round of the BSB at brands if anyone has any tips getting there and back.

Cheers

In that case Infinity and Hein Gericke in Farnborough will be closest.

P&H in Crawley (Gatwick Airport) have a shed load of Dainese, and only a stones throw from Surrey.
