Cycle Touring: Four Different Approaches
According to Andrew Sykes, Susanna Thornton, Cass Gilbert, and Josh Reid, there is no one "optimum solution" for cycle travel, only what works best for each individual.
Bikes for touring and bikepacking are highly diverse, unlike racing bikes which have a uniform design due to their shared goal of winning.
- Touring and bikepacking bikes can be tailored to individual preferences.
- A traditional British-style touring bike may be the best choice for some riders, but it's not a necessity.
If your bike will carry some luggage and take you where you want to go in relative comfort, it’s a valid option.
The fact that many touring and bikepacking trips are made on non-traditional bikes highlights the flexibility of the sport.
Author's summary: Cycle touring offers diverse bike options.
