MALLE MILE 2025

A NON-STOP CELEBRATION OF THE SPEED, MUSIC & ART OF MOTORCYCLE CULTURE

July 20, 2025

Quintessentially British in every way, the Malle Mile never fails to disappoint. The thin veil of cloud cover, thick and tacky mud primed for riding & sliding, a dramatic backdrop of a Tudor-era architecture. The grounds around Grimsthorpe Castle were once again a fantastic festival of speed, art, grit, and style.

“If everything seems under control, you’re not going fast enough.” — Mario Andretti

The Zero XB, XE, and DSR/X were right at home and gave the crowd a proper demonstration of Zero Motorcycles performance. The Mile Sprint, Hill Climb, and Malle 500 were challenging, competitive, but most importantly, a metric tonne of fun.

Long-time Zero collaborators (and all-around legends) Joe and Lizzie Banks ripped all weekend. Joe rode a custom black-and-blue XE outfitted with TFX off-road suspension, fat knobbies, and a stripped back look, while Lizzie shredded the course on a stock XE.

Joe's return to the Malle Mile stage was a full-circle moment, having raced a custom FX with English Electric Motor Co. a few years ago.

A special shoutout goes to Daniel of Good Habits, the Amsterdam-based builder and designer who helped bring our custom XE to life. With his signature design-forward approach and a deep respect for utility, Daniel captured the essence of the Malle Mile: raw, creative, and unapologetically fun. This also highlighted the opportunities for customers to personalise their X Line models, allowing them to truly make the machines their own with a unique touch, look, and feel.

From the chaos of Motopolo to the laid-back vibe of the "Art of the Motorcycle", the weekend reminded us why we build what we build. Zero Motorcycles isn't just about the tech – it's about the community, the culture, and rethinking what motorcycles can be.

Until next year, Malle Mile.
