General Discussion / ~4,000 mi cross country tour on mountain bike?
« on: May 18, 2014, 02:47:34 pm »
This summer I'm biking from San Francisco, CA to Portland, ME. I have my "Iron Horse" mountain bike I've had for about 6 years. It's been very reliable and sturdy and recently got a thorough tune up. The mountain wheels have been replaced with hybrids.

Does anybody have any touring experience on a mountain bike? Any advise? Should I really buy a used road bike or stick with my faithful steed?

Also, if I was to buy a bike, I don't want to spend more than $500.

I'd appreciate any helpful advise!
