Not Just Bikes,  a must-see when passing through Galashiels, the shop and workshop are situated near the centre of the town on the A7.  From the north, pass through the town centre, follow the road left round the clock tower, following signs for Melrose/Selkirk.  Look out for the bright yellow and white Ceramic Experience shop on the left (before the Esso petrol station), turn left and follow the ramp down to Not Just Bikes' yard.  From the south, go over two mini-roundabouts, pass the Esso petrol station on the right, and take the next right, again at the Ceramic Experience shop.  The bike shop is well stocked and run by Camilla, who always gives a warm welcome, and if your machine needs a bit of a tweak, then Neil and his mechanics will get it sorted for you.
