The unmistakably impressive pink coloured office building belonging to ABD in Calne (dating back to 1740) stands proudly "surveying" the Calne Rotary Club Motorcycle Meet which took place on Saturday 23 July 2011 throughout the busy town of Calne.
This annual charity event is in its 11th year and attracts thousands of bikers to the town.
ABD team Halina Tomlinson, KJ, Tim Hotchkiss, Joe Phelan , Tom Paget, Peter Johnson and Catherine Cole took time out to man the ABD Stand in the centre of Calne had a great day. WHY? The team are big motorbike enthusiasts! Take for example KJ;-
ABD Team Halina Tomlinson, Tom Paget, Tim Hotchkiss and Joe Phelan.
KJ has been interested in motor bikes since her late teens and used to watch bike racing. Her dad also owned a BSA.
KJ has owned 3 bikes. She started with a Hyosung Cruise 11 124cc (which she called Tom) whilst she was learning to ride. She then progressed to a Honda CBR400 NC23 (which she called Ollie).
When she moved to Devizes with her husband Paul (also a bike enthusiast) she decided with Pauls encouragement that it was time to get another bike so she purchased a Honda CBF 500 (which she calls Biggles) and currently owns. They have never looked back! Both KJ and Paul have been to lots of bike shows throughout the country.
Paul is involved with online radio station BIKERSfm and presents a show on a Monday night based around British Superbike, World Superbike Championship and Support Series which involves interviewing bikers from both British and World Stage.
