I went, on the Z1-A, up to Lancaster and back on Saturday, around 150 miles round trip, to see my Mum. She didn't fancy a ride on pillion.

Tell that to my nephew! My 70 year old big sister loved her return to back seat biking at 100 mph+

Perfect weight distribution

All that weight over the back end, must be murder keeping the power wheelie's in check.

Life has got in the way recently and I've had 'stuff' going on for the past 2-3 weeks which has interfered with my bike riding activities which is really not good 😢😢😢.
Got out today though on my own for a few hours on Kitty the K1 and bloody luverly it was too. 110 miles of great riding and a couple of coffee stops. After 109¾ miles and whilst doing 85 mph, I thought, the back end of this bike doesn't feel good all of a sudden 🤔🤔🤔 Stopped and had a look and found a totally flat back tyre, it went from fully inflated to fully flat in less than a few seconds. Bugger.
Phoned my breakdown company (Trigger 😁) who came out with a foot pump but the tyre had left the rim and the tube was obviously punctured, so air wouldn't stay in.
Never mind, I rode the last ¼ mile home at 10mph.
I can only see what looks like the broken end of a thorn, no other tell tale signs of what caused the puncture
Still a great ride out though, life always feels better after a good ride.

Thatle o it Julie, mucho cursing, sweating and swearing to come, that looks like an Avon Square Master tyre and i remember them as bl##dy tight on the rim.

Glass half full Julie....110 Miles of glorious biking versus 1/4 mile at 10MPH. Them's good odds in my book !

I'm having trouble with a pain in my groin at the moment......but I'm determined that I'll get out on my bike on Sunday....Bollocks to it ! LOL.

Much impressed with your Kitty....she looks wonderful.....and a real credit to you (both).

Indeed it is Si. I will have a proper look at the tyre when it's off tomorrow but at the moment a thorn / wood splinter looks the most likely culprit.

Great to see people out and about! Pissed and rained all day yesterday. Better day today thankfully, there’s a big bike gathering and bike run in Orkney today in aid of Macmillan. We will be covering a good part of the west mainland of Orkney which is not that many miles really, but it’s all about the donations. It has been reported that there will be approx 150 bikes, not sure about that I will post follow up.🏍🏍🏍
