Last month, the teams at both BS Fixings and BS Stainless took a slight detour from our usual operations and headed to the race track! We swapped our steel for speed and revved up our engines at the fantastic Go Karting Preston, the UK's #1 Indoor Karting venue by TeamSport.
Now, whilst we are accustomed to the precision and detail of our daily tasks, taking on the challenge of navigating sharp turns and speeding down straight stretches was a refreshing change. The scent of burning rubber, the whizzing sound of go-karts passing by, and the echoing laughter, created an atmosphere that the team will cherish.
It’s not every day that you get to see your colleagues in racing helmets and jumpsuits, battling it out on the tracks. It was a delightful mix of friendly competition and fun, which the teams all appreciated after working hard. Some showcased their inner Lewis Hamilton, whilst others, well... let's just say they were more in it for the experience than the speed. However, no matter the skill level, every single one of us left with a grin wider than the tracks we raced on. See the image below to see our winners!
The day served as a reminder of something crucial - whilst hard work, commitment, and professionalism are the cornerstones of our businesses, it's equally essential to take a step back, share a few laughs, and strengthen the friendship that makes our team so special. Teambuilding activities, like this go-karting adventure, are more than just a break from the norm. They're an opportunity to see our colleagues in a new light, to build relationships outside of the office environment, and to return to work rejuvenated with team spirit.
Both BS Stainless and BS Fixings believe in the importance of a cohesive team, one that enjoys not just working together but also spending quality time outside of the professional setting, and what better way to do this than by challenging each other on the racing tracks?
We would like to give a massive shoutout to Go Karting Preston by TeamSport for hosting us. Their top-notch facilities, combined with their helpful team, made the experience even more memorable. For anyone looking to bond with their team or simply have a fantastic time racing, we couldn't recommend them enough!
To wrap it up, our day at the tracks was a roaring success! Here's to many more fun outings, tighter bonds, and of course, to the wonderful world of stainless steel that brings us all together.
