General Discussion / What Touring bike would you suggest?
« on: November 03, 2008, 03:29:35 pm »
I am coming over from England to do the TransAm Tour in May 2009, starting in Williamsburg,Virginia.
Although I have a touring bike - which I've had for 18 years now, I thought I'd treat myself to a new one for the trip. I want to buy in the US - preferably in or near the Williamsburg area. Could you suggest the best tourer that would comfortably see me across the country and then for me to ship it back to the UK.
It would need to be sturdy, have 36 spokes and be a joy to ride. I welcome all suggestions.
Many thanks.
