Rugby star Tommy Makinson gets an Asgard Twin Bike Shed

St Helens rugby star Tommy Makinson approached us on social media for help and advice on storing his bikes at home, with the Asgard Twin Bike Shed catching his eye. 

“Really enjoyed having the Asgard team here fitting the shed today, great group of professionals who got everything sorted for me so quick from the start to finish, the shed is perfect for me fits great and stores so much inside! Can’t wait to have the team back no doubt very soon for my next purchase” - Tommy Makinson

"It was a pleasure to head over to Lancashire to install a Twin bikebox for Tommy, helping him keep his bikes safe and secure, which in turn helps him keep in top physical fitness - Stuart, Asgard Shed Installation Team

Who is Tommy Makinson?

Tommy plays for St Helens R.F.C, a top tier Rugby League Club in Merseyside, as a Wing, Full Back. Rising up through the Saints academy, Tommy has played for the club for over 10 years and is committed to staying with the club until at least 2024. 

Tommy also plays at the international level for England, proving an exceptional member of the team in 2018 when he scored a hat trick for England’s test matches against New Zealand, earning him Man of the Series and a Golden Boot award as the International Player of the Year for 2018. 

Since then, Tommy’s success hasn’t slowed down with earning Top Try Scorer in the Super League in 2019, and his third Super League title in 2020. In 2021, Tommy was handed a Testimonial year at the club and won 3 more Gand Final wins in a row - we can’t wait to see what 2022’s season brings next!

Why did Tommy Makinson choose an Asgard Twin bike shed? 

A keen cyclist, Tommy was looking for a bikebox storage to safely store his 2 bikes in. With a compact footprint, the Asgard Twin Bike Locker was an ideal bike shed taking up minimal space at just 900mm wide x 1900mm long - fitting down the side of the house to create a neat and clean aesthetic. 

Like all of our metal sheds, the double bikebox is made out of galvanised steel, creating superior weatherproof storage designed to last. With 3-point locking, a unique ventilation system and the ability to bolt the bike shed to the floor, the Twin Bike Locker will help to keep his bikes safe. Tommy selected the Twin Bike Locker in cream to compliment his house.
