My love of cycle touring started age 13 when I read ‘Travels with Rosinante’. That year I went on my first ‘long’ bike ride: getting the train from north Wirral to Wrexham and riding home. I still get the same sense of freedom from a long ride on unknown roads.
I still have the book
As long-distance machines par excellence, I’ve always admired Koga Miyata's superb touring and mountain bikes. I’m really excited to now have a Koga Miyata Ridge Runner frameset, courtesy of the very kind and helpful @longun who bought this from @KenG as part of a collection of frames. Chris then passed the K-M on to me, safely packaged for a trip with Parcelforce down the M62.
