Today we took our bikes in to REI to schedule tune-ups. Besides finding that our rides might be *sorely* inadequate for the trip, we learned a few new things, too. Upon telling the resident bike expert, Maureen, about our venture (she probably thinks we are a couple of poor, crazy amateurs ) she started freely sharing information. She talked to us about specifics of bike fit, components, the importance of a good saddle, and peddles. All in all, it was very informative for a quick trip to REI. I am sure we will be seeing more of Maureen.
Next up . . .
We will be attending a class on the Basics of Supported Bike Touring--just what we need!
