Ladies Who Ride: Lynn Richardson

What do you ride?

I have a couple of Triumphs – a 2001 955i Speed Triple and a 2013 675 Street Triple.

How did you get into bikes?

I got into bikes as a teenager ’cos I had some pals that had bikes. As a student I briefly had a Yamaha RD200, sold that and got a Kawasaki Z200. I hadn’t sat my test and about that time the learner rules changed, and when the Z200 was stolen I didn’t get another bike for a very long time … about 20 years!

Where do you like to ride?

I live in Fife so there are plenty nice routes within easy reach of home. I also really like to tour on the bike. I’ve been around Europe a few times, down as far as Spain and Portugal, up as far as Norway and Sweden. Once Covid restrictions have eased I’d like to go a bit further afield.
