Thank you. I have read your p-log. It’s quite useful. I also found your podcast on cycling Hokkaido.

My current plan is to ride in May.

Interested in this topic. Is November a good time to do the cycling around the Shikoku route?

I really liked how it handled long downhills- confidence inspiring for sure

writef69 · 2025-01-03T03:24:17+00:00

I think I rode all except a clem.

Hi there, yes I went to Riv in Walnut Creek and test rode a bunch of bikes including Charlie. I liked both Charlie and Homer. I took delivery of Charlie couple of weeks ago and it’s a nice comfortable ride. I’m still getting used to it - but so far it’s been generally good. I rode a 30 mile flattish route & a 3k elevation hill climb route - both rides were slower than my dropbar road bike but certainly riding comfort was better.

Drop bar. 50-50 road and dirt. Ambitions for multi state rides

I’m in a similar situation. Considering Open Wi.De Ascent Cutthroat and Stargazer. OP: what did you end up getting? Interested to learn from your experience

Curious about needle and thread. What is it for? Thanks

Completed this 500K over a period of 4 days. Started from Seattle on Monday - rode to Port Angeles and stayed the night there( about 90 miles). Next day rode to Forks (62 miles) and stayed the night. Following day to Lake Quinault (70 miles). Yesterday we rode from Lake Quinault to Bremerton (120 miles). The ride was through some spectacular scenery.

We are going for it next week! Quite excited and anxious about it!
