Just one question since this is my first ever visit!
Can you provide a guest book everyone can see here?
http://touring.anymouse.org/index.php/guestbook See your link has \"guest book\" on the end of thr URL but no sign of visible comments or replies hereabouts so its not really a guestbook, unless I am missing the location of an actual guestbook on this site and have overlooked it?
I don't aim to make an issue out of it, but preferably
please try and get one whereby users can see all the visitors and regular users that come to comment can interact if they so wish and so on please! Perhaps even
a message board if you know how to install such a thing.
I don\'t but maybe you are able. AND ANYWAY THESE ARE ONLY
THE SUGGESTIONS OF A CASUAL DROP IN PERSON HERE! :) I will
book mark the site and possibly eMail some of you's...if thats possible, and as for our subject, bikes displayed on theses pages are not cheap I see. Why so expensive huh??

This is from Chris (I'm the admin) in response to the guestbook comment: I guess I would prefer if people keep discussion on the touring@phred.org mailing list -- more people will see it, it is archived, easy to search, etc. So for right now I'll leave this guestbook as is, a simple place to drop a short comment on the site or individual bikes. Thank you for the suggestion, and inadvertedly pointing out a bug in my script (poster's orginal message had a number of greater-than signs, screwed up the html..) As to why touring bikes are so expensive... Probably because most are produced in small numbers by small companies. Many used $200 mountain bikes are suitable for touring with a few adjustments, so don't think that you need a Bruce Gordon (drool...) to tour. Thanks for visiting!

If you spend many hours in the saddle you start to think about comfort and the most comfortable bicycles made are recumbents. Here\'s some introductory information: http://www.ihpva.org/FAQ/

One manufacture which seems to be left out of this web site is soma fabrications. They make a frame called the doublecross out of Reynolds 650 tubing. I\'ve used this frame on four tours in the last three years. It\'s stood up well, including some rough four wheel drive roads on the Big Island in Hawaii(loaded), as well as some sinlge track in Moab, and lots of gravel roads around home. I\'m quite happy with the frame. Steve L.

Hello, you might want to add the Jamis Nova..basically an upgrade on the Aurora, current model has a carbon fork on a steel frame. plenty of room for fenders and more comfortable tires. I\'m currently using it for commuting. It would do light touring fine, but I\'d need to change the fork for heavier touring.
