Loaded for . . touring

“ I want to ride the Blue Ridge Parkway from Cherokee to Front Royal and back, unsupported “

Well there’s a bit of a through back to the early days of my cycling journey. This one is Loaded touring bicycle in the traditional 70s and 80s world of cycling. You will notice Rim brakes, updated to mini linear pulls, 10 speed Campagnolo components, Triple chain rings and a painted to match vintage Silca frame pump.

The racks have stainless steel contact areas to keep the boogie man away, a Bi-laminate treatment on the bottoma bracket shell and Tange tubing with a matching headset to keep things in the spirit of the 80s.

In white with black spots and a red collar, meet Pongo. From the 1961 animated classic 101 Dalmatians.
