Show us your expedition bike

We had great fun with the trailer - as they got bigger my sons moved onto a tandem, here when we did the Devon Coast to Coast (7 year old on the back of the tandem, 4 year old in the trailer).

Also I struck off on my own with one of them to the D-Day beaches in Normandy. Here is a heavy object:

...with a Churchill AVRE in the background.

Lovely thread.
I love go get lost bike rides.

Heart is for the GT Tachyon, is there any more pics/build information?

What is the difference between expedition and touring bikes? They are supposed to be more rugged?

I think I've posted them already, but some of mine (mostly gone, as I usually sell or donate them at the end of our trips)



1991 Scott Windriver, pulling a Chariot trailer on the left. 1993 Trek 820, pulling a tag-along, on the right. In the Salar de Uyuni, Bolivia



Our honeymoon cycling Cuba on a Cycle Wolf and Bergamont random mtbs from the mid to late 90's



In Ladakh, Indian Himalayas, with a 1991 Cignal Silverado

And some more I have to search... No better than a cheap but sturdy 90's MTB to go on expeditions. You can throw it to the roof of a bus, park in front on the road-side restaurant, or leave behind at the end of the trip instead of searching for a bike box somewhere in the a** of the world...
