Planning this for next summer with a couple of friends over about 6 or 7 days of riding. Never been to this part of the state, so any additions, edits, tips would be most welcome from this group. Probably going to put the Hunq into service for this ride!

Looks like riv knows their knicker audience judging by the many fans. I dislike the roominess/bagginess and long length of the musa knickers. The more I'm paying for clothes the more fitted/slim I expect them to be, to a point :p. And knickers should not be "floods" On Sunday, October 4,

Fascinating. I can only assume my phone call prompted the revision. These new drawings do not jive with the previously posted (as of yesterday) geometry tables, nor do they jive with Kevin's answer to my question. He said ETT of the 58 was 60. These drawings say it's 2 cm longer. Now, who

Just the bike without eyelets would see light loads. The other two bikes I'd use the saddlesack with have racks etc., would see heavier loads. Besides I'm a "no replacement for displacement" kinda guy :p and the medium isn't even that much cheaper than the large. On Friday, February 26, 2016
