HUNDREDS of bikers took to the streets of Swaythling in Southampton for the opening of a new custom motorbike shop.

Bikers from all over the country came to see Attitude Cycles which sells custom Harley Davidsons in Stoneham Lane.

The property was previously a derelict building but after motorbike enthusiasts Nick Houghton and Simon Harris invested £150,000, the property has had a new lease of life.

Swaythling councillor Bob Painton believes the building, which has a showroom, workshop, burger van and store in its vicinity, will put the area on the map.

He said: “I believe they will be a great asset to our local community, bringing the chance of specialist work and apprenticeships and also showing their incredible artwork with these custom motor cycles .”
