I’ve equipped last year’s commuter for tour duty.
-Road specific tires
-Rack and panniers
-Leather saddle
Rode 100 miles with this setup last week. I’m feeling every crack in the road, but these tires sail on smooth road. The panniers getting the weight off my back makes spending more than an hour in the saddle possible!
OK.. from today i have offically 9 days left at edgelab. If you count the weekend (which you have to) I have 14 days left. At that point I plan to meet up with Devon and purchase my bicycle. We will also try out our hammock. I only wanted to get one and share it but devon insisted on getting two.
Load up two bikes and ride from Hartford, CT to Provincetown, MA and back in ten days.
