Details100,000 miles is the recommended interval which equates to 160,000 km. As I’m not sure that it was done when I bought the Defender with 78,000km I have decided to do it now (~100,000 km)
Brought my father back to the UK after a week spent with us in Belgium. We went back up to Staffordshire in the midlands to visit my elder brother and his family before returning to Eastbourne The driving was painfully slow going up to James and coming back down to Eastbourne.

Details18.42km. 98m ascent. 4h14 walk time DC is full of things to see and they are fairly well spaced out….. Our first job was to find 2 bike boxes to pack our bikes for the home journey. These we found at The Daily Rider who kindly gave us 2 with the original inside packaging material.…

We had a great ride around the sights of Richmond and Richmond is a city where I could live! They have the…
Details101.42km. 543m ascent. 4h42 ride time Our journey draws to an end as we make our way up to Washington DC to catch our flight back to Belgium. We have a whole day in Richmond, mainly because we were way too early in Yorktown and we have time to spare. Changing our ticket is prohibitively…
Details13.44km. 68m ascent. 3h10 walking time No ride today but a foot tour of the old colonial town, probably the world’s largest living museum! Williamsburg is beautiful and a lot of the houses are original. All commerce is kept out of the town so you have to go to the edge to get a coffee…
