Motorcycle Shop Owners Riding Off Into The Sunset

Bob & Mandy Eve in their showroom

It's the last day of trading for Bob's Motorcycle Centre in St Helier.

The popular local dealership and repair shop is closing its doors after 35 years of trading.

Owners Bob and Mandy Eve say they have mixed feelings about retiring, but Bob told Channel 103 that now is the right time:

"We've been running our own business for 35 years now, but I've actually been looking after motorcycles in Jersey for more than 43 years.

"Now is the right time to hang up my spanners and overalls, as we're at an age now where we want to do some other things and see some more of the world."

He said the couple wants to 'take [their] first proper holiday in 40 years' as well as spending more time with family and friends.
