Testimonials for Alex Briggs
Alex is incredibly professional and easy to work with. I had the pleasure of organising an “Audience with” style event with Alex. He spoke at ease to an audience of 150 bike fans on behalf of motorcycle charity Blood Bikes Scotland, for over an hour and a half, reciting tales of both his story of becoming a mechanic, working with world champions and also technical knowledge. He also welcome questions from the audience. It should be noted that several delegates travelled over nine hours to hear from Alex. Alex spent a large amount of time post event chatting with fans and taking photos adding to the overall quality of the event.
