May not have the best or biggest selection but decent guys who'll give you great advice. Happy to point you in the right direction even if it means they don't get a sale.

bit further afield but with a much bigger range there is a J&S accessories near Kettering along the A14 so about 30-40 mins away from Cambridge. Its a factory shop so they will happily go grab stuff out of the main company warehouses that are on site if you need a size thats not on display.

Haywards on Histon Road. The big charity shop warehouse Emmaus on the A10 to Ely has used gear for fairly decent prices. A bit further up the A10, Ely Motorcycles have a shop too.

Actually, my partner is looking to sell a set of medium sized leathers plus gloves. Let me know if you're interested.

Hi Kevin. I live in Ely near Cambridge and tend to go to Wheels in Peterborough - good excuse to sit on lots of bikes too!

Congrats on the pass!!!

I guess I shouldn't still be holding my breath for those new winter gloves they were ordering in for me from October 2013.
