Phoenix rise to the challenge...


It's 08.30 on a damp Tuesday morning and here I am standing in the lush surroundings of Glenbervie golf course ready to make the Phoenix rise once again!

It is that time of year when the rotary club have their annual charity golf event that we have won before and are determined to do so again.

Fuelled by a bacon butty and coffee, we are ready for the challenge!

Then “BOOM” the rain stops, the shotgun fires and the sparks fly off the first tee...

Here we go!

Right from the off the team gelled and we knew we were going to mount a serious challenge each of us holding our own and then to our amazement Robert Gillespie scores a one at the par three, we are on a roll! Then captain fantastic (ME) got an eagle on a par four!!! We are now flying and know we are in with a right good chance of taking the trophy.

The round ends we tally up our scores and have all played a monumental part in the event.

The awards ceremony begins and in traditional style 3rd place is announced and it isn’t us, 2nd place is announced and again no Phoenix. We are anxiously awaiting to find out who is victorious.

Then the words “in first place and this years champions are.... Team Phoenix Honda” is announced to a rapturous applause by the other 17 participating teams.

Champions again so roll on next year! (No pressure for the future triple winners)

No other motorsport event can boast more than 100 years of such illustrious history...


For 2 days last week, our Senior Sales Executive at Phoenix Honda Gragemouth, John McLain found himself in the presence of some biking legends, at the Isle of Man TT.

There is nothing on Earth quite like the Isle of Man TT Races. No other motorcycle race is held on such a challenging track as the 37-mile plus Mountain Course with its seemingly never-ending series of bends, bumps, jumps, stone walls, manhole covers and telegraph poles.

The skill, bravery and concentration levels required are immense, with speeds approaching 200mph, and, while difficult to learn and even harder to come first, the rewards for winning on the world famous course are like no other.

"I went over from Liverpool as a foot passenger and toured the island by bus! Watched the qualifying session from brae hill.. and they are a lot faster than on the tv! The noise is spectacular to. Thanks to Graham Foster Vigour's for the pit tour, will be going next year 100%"

Ride out and Treasure Hunt...

Last Sunday morning at Phoenix Honda Grangemouth we set off for a ride out with a twist. Our route was based on an exciting treasure hunt, with prizes and clues hiding at every location.

We set off from our Grangemouth showroom and headed up to Creiff, Loch Earn and finished off in Callander.

On return to the show room we tucked into some much needed hot food and drinks, where the first lucky 20 bikers booked in for the event received their complimentary neck warmer, mug and lanyard courtesy of Phoenix Motorcycles.

Phoenix Honda Bikes road trip to Oulton Park

Saturday 16th July Oulton Park British Super Bike Championship Round 7.

John McLain of Phoenix Honda Grangemouth took 20 customers down to Oulton Park and here is what he had to say about it.

Oulton park is situated in Cheshire and is one of the more spectacular circuits of the series, at 06.00, 20 riders set of from phoenix Honda motorcycles here at grangemouth for the 240 mile ride closely followed by the van... or so we thought, torrential rain stopped 7 even getting to the meet up points but fortunately 13 made it although 10 turned up in cars!,

The ride down for Anne and robin fox and myself was to say the least wet, however on reaching the circuit and entering Hondas hospitality suit makes it all worth while, we had lunch with Keith amor, Shane shaky burn, Ryuichi Kiyonari, and the legend that is John McGuiness, after lunch it was a tour of the garage to see the bikes being prepped and onto the pit walk all vip courtesy of Honda and hosted by Fiona Cole who did a fantastic job of keeping us in check and certainly new her stuff !

Then once all done its over to the campsite for a BBQ and refreshment, and the camp party began... Up at 7.00 for more bacon butties and lots of tea and coffee, camp packed and on to the circuit for the days racing, even in the rain it is an awesome circuit with lots of action, the ride home again the heavens opened and did not let up until almost home.

All in all a fantastic weekend, even torrential rain failed to dampen the spirits of the 13 of us that made it.
