Took a trip down to Verwood to have a look around Crescent yesterday. Wow! It's like a museum of racing.

The bikes aren't so much on display as just slung in the corner which just adds to the appeal of the place. It's like they're saying "hey it's what we do, what of it?"

I know alot of people on here aren't into sports bikes, but it's pretty impresive to be stood next to Kevin Schwantz' RGV500 and a couple of Kenny Roberts' No.1 Telefonica bikes.

The shop is great too. If you're down that way it's deffinately worth a detour.

I can second this :) It is just like a museum, I remember going there some time ago to an open day and it was a great day out 8-)

It's a shame they don't have a cafe. It's a great ride down with lots of twisty bits. We went down in an M5 and that was a hoot. On a bike would be awsome.

3X isnt what it was a few years ago, but if your going to Crescent you may as well go to 3X as its only probably four miles away. If Crescent have an open day, definitely go, there will be their race riders and other celebs signing stuff and only too happy to chat. I cant remember when it is but its usually warm.
