Peaky Bikers Guided Motorcycle Tours in the Peak District

25/05/2024

Great ride around the peaks and slightly off the map on some backroads near Wirksworth today. A few green lanes thrown in for variety. Ended up at Bonsall for lunch and the re-opened lovely old Cobbles Cafe at Longnor for a late brew after starting the day at the Little cafe at Endsor. Nice quiet roads especially for Bank Holiday weekend.

Spot of green laning today to end the year. Very quiet this afternoon, saw very few bikes although I guess it was a tad cold. Then off to Grindleford Station cafe for a massive sausage n egg butty and coffee. Happy New Year.

Day off today. Trip down to sunny ol Matlock Bath for fish n chips lunch. Don't normally go that way as its too busy but hardly anyone about mid week. Suits me fine and what a beautiful day.

At last I managed to test ride the Moto Guzzi V7 this weekend. With its attractive classic looks, bilateral v-twin, shaft drive and Italian production it's a winner for me. 52bhp for this version meant manageable power with plenty of zip when you need. Road handling was a joy. Suspension a tiny bit stiff , Derbyshire roads don't help. Very comfy to ride , could imagine touring on it. Its just a fun bike to ride with a dash of elegance. In summary Magnifico 🇮🇹 🏍

Had a test ride on the Kawasaki Z650RS today at Clay Cross Kawasaki. A beautiful modern retro that could be pitched against the Interceptor and the new BSA with the added bonus of 67 bhp. Lovely purring engine , ride quality is excellent with a nice upright riding position and comfy seat. Light weight enough at 187kg and a comfortable 820mm seat height easy enough for my 5 foot 8 frame to flat foot. Lovely old style clocks add to the retro feel. Overall a fun punchy good looking modern retro , what's not to like.
