Heading west on this lane, perhaps a couple of hundred yards from the road, there's a small puddle. I took the left rut on the weekend and lost the front wheel down what felt like a square edged foot deep hole just below the surface.

In the Tavy times (march 17th) there is an article about a petition to stop vehicles using green lanes. It has been prompted by vehicular use of 201-038. In fairness it looks like the 4x4 boys have got hold of it and made a real mess of the moor at the southern end of the lane. There are also accusations of...

Just reading about a chap who is riding one of these around the world. In my head I'm thinking prop stand, servicing, rebuilds etc but no! 32500kms without issues. Naughty me for mis-judging a manufacturer.
