OUT & ABOUT
BMF staff and volunteers have been flying the flag at biking events recently Words and Pics: Pete and Janet Laidlaw
A
run was organised by NW Biking club to our friends at Altberg Boots, writes Peter Laidlaw. It was good to see and chat to Mike, Joe and Paul, with whom we have had a long relationship. Tours of the workshops have been suspended for now but may start again when it is safe to do so. These are fascinating and give a real insight into the history of boot making in general and Altberg in particular. On the Wednesday night before the Dambuster Rally we had the chance to have a promotions stand at Lincolnshire Bike Night where some 1500 bikes turned up and the Lancaster did its taxi runs. No wonder the night is so popular – looking forward to the next one.
