New service brings classic bikes to the masses

Enjoy a choice of classics and forget about the spanners

Bugad Classic Bike Hire is offering the chance for motorcycle enthusiasts to ride an array of unusual vintage bikes. From just £50 per day there is the chance to ride a 1981 Moto Guzzi or even greater classics dating back some 65 years including a 1941 Harley Davidson, a 1940 Royal Enfield 350 WD/C, or a more recent 1960 Triumph Speed Twin or a 1967 Triumph Trophy.

All you need is a motorcycle license and everything else is done for you, helmets and jackets are available and Bugad will even deliver bikes to your required location. Based in the New Forest, Bugad is designed for people who love riding classic motorcycles but who don't have the time or the opportunity to own one. If you want a day out riding classic bikes and lunching at friendly pubs, or a great biking holiday then Bugad is the perfect solution.

Bugad is the brainchild of Gordon Williamson who is eloquent about his passion: "Motorcycles have been my love for years. None of my classic bikes are concourse, but are in excellent working order. I believe they should be ridden and enjoyed. If you have ever owned a classic bike you will understand. motorcycles are like drugs... they are addictive"

If you're interested in trying out a classic, then take a look at their site: www.bugad.com
