Work Horse

Purchases this bike last year having moved to Bideford and found work at Bude. Bike is used every working day.

 
  Travelling to work involves probably one of the best drives in the UK. I travel the 25 miles to BUde along the Atlantic highway which involves lots of bends and straights. I have found the ´Water Buffalo´ to be dependable so far with approx. 60,000 miles on the clock. Tyre wear has been a problem but I am doing 1000 miles a month. Useless tank capacity is the main problem as I find I have to refill every 125 miles or so. I would hate to travel long distance in a hurry! Weather protection is excellent during Cornish storms! A heavy bike and one that I choose not to lean to far into bends but that might be just me!A great drive for an old bike!
