My recently acquired Thorn Raven Sports Tour, in a Cambridgeshire green lane.

And here she is the day I got her home

Bit of a change from the rather tatty Dawes Galaxy I was using before (now relegated to shopping and town bike)

I wanted sprightly rather than bullet proof so went with DT Swiss XR 425 and Pasela Tourguard tyres. I have to say it is the most comfortable bike I've ever ridden and its fun to ride, although I wonder if I will be still saying that once I've ridden a 400km audax ride on it

Camrider thanks for that i'm after a really good set of wheels,yeah have to say thorn sure know how to build bikes 400 km will be a breeze on that machine.

2009 - 1st solo tour, short ride in North Yorks - as hilly as it looks - Bike is a cheap Raleigh Firefly MTB. Did the job for me.

2010, Same bike, about to board ferry to do Ronde van Nederlands. Cheap rear panniers, nice Altura fronts.

Pic at a sign post

Favourute shot of the old bike

2011 - 3rd tour, this time en-route to Germany - recognise the sign post? New bike - Dawes Karakum

Lovely bike path on the Ruhr - do it, you'll be glad you did

Somewhere in Germany, on the Fulda I think?

Somewhere in Austria, between Oberstdorf and Bregrenz - I like this pic.

Back at the same sign post again - noticeably thinner after 2 1/2 weeks riding.
