Hello, I'm new on here.

All that way on chopper, also impressed as the foregoing comments. Don't you get rude comments from kids along the way? And how do you get a comfortable riding position on something designed for a twelve year old?

I also have penchant for old retro steel racers, which one do you have?

Welcome from Evesham.
I can't get my head around 100miles on a chopper seat!

Rude comments from kids, quite the opposite normally, usually it's the "cool Ride" nice wheels" comments from kids. Cycle past a busy pub on a summers day & it's the "is it real" "how much did that cost".
As for comfortable position I think I must be Chopper shaped, the 100 mile ride I did was my longest ever & the bike & seat were perfect. Ok I did fit a longer seat post but mostly to fit my water bottle to as I didn't want to drill the original.
Racer, nothing even remotely exotic only a Elswick Puma 12 speed.

Chopper seat, dead comfy, my racer saddle after a distance of less than a third could hardly walk.
Keep watching, doing it again this year.
