• P O Motorcycles on Liverpool Road for scooters and motorbikes.
• P&O motorcycles on Liverpool Road about 15 minutes walk west of the town centre.
• Good old Mrs Brookes On Liverpool road, been there years.
• Mrs Brookes, has been here since the year dot. Everyone in the town has had a bike from Mrs Brookes. A very scary and hard but decent woman. We do not know how old she is and people have taken bets on it but when she finally pops her clogs we will all be in a state of mourning because none of us know where to fix a bloody puncture or know where the next bloody bike shop is. GOOD BLESS HER!!!!!

The Knowhere Guide started out as a list of places to skateboard in the UK. It is a compilation of (unedited) information and views supplied by users like yourself. It is not a conventional tourist guide!

In most cases, the information in each section has been submitted by more than one contributor (the credits at the bottom of the page list some, but not all, of the contributors) and some of it dates back to the 1970s.

We make no claims as to the accuracy of the information in the Guide - our only purpose is to provide a forum for users to share their knowledge and opinions. So please keep a large bag of salt handy and be prepared to read between the lines!

If you disagree with a comment, or information is out of date, please submit an update! The contributors come from all walks of life, and their opinions are bound to be subjective, so if your view isn't represented, please speak up and contribute to the balance of the Guide. See below in the 'Have Your Say' section for how to add your voice.

If we have helped you out or made you laugh you can buy us a pint.

Have Your Say...

You can use the add an event form to tell us about events happening in Eccles.
