that must be why every time I think about getting the bike out at the moment, I get stair rods

Gosh, it would appear I'm associating with a proper bunch of ner'do-wells
I can't pretend I haven't been a bit rained on this trip though.
I caused great amusement to this diminutive Galician lady, as I attempted to put my legwarmers on over my shoes
whilst we both sheltered from a downpour under this canopy. We had a proper good old chat, and giggle together..
Neither of us knew what about really, not being in the least fluent in each others languages.. .. But somehow that didn't seem to matter..

I have not got a digital pic of my Dawes Galaxy in it's original touring guise, with front and rear panniers. However, here's a pick of it on a mountain, in bike-packing/gravel bike guise, earlier this year.

I'll have you know my tent is only 1.4 kg !!
My food might weigh a bit, but everything else is pared down to the minimum necessary..

Not on this trip no, the conditions were not right for it. However I did see one on it's holidays in Wales a couple of years ago:

Fitting up some new panniers on my Schwinn Passage. I bought this as a frame and built it up. Columbus Tenax steel. Anything is possible on this bike.
I'm not a international bike tourist. I tour weekend with the mrs. On Rails to Trails (Greenway) We usually ride the long trails 30, 50, 75 miles one way.
The pic is at the beginning of the erie canal in NY this past Labor day weekend. It's the Mohawk river trail that turns into the Erie Canal trail, Which takes you all the way to Niagara falls.

Picture's flipped. Sounds like a nice ride, though.
