I kind of knew you'd want to be riding the motorcycle. The Pinarello would have even less carrying capacity - like none! You'd need a support vehicle for sure - plus, you'd likely have to leave a week in advance. Lots and lots of mountains along the way, as I recall. That 15 pound bike would come in handy going up! ;-) cheers, frank -- "Sharpness is a bourgeois concept." -Henri Cartier-Bresson -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
