I’m riding a 2016 Kona Sutra which I purchased at Tall Tree Cycles on Somerset Street in Ottawa. It’s a great bike. I have put over 7,000kms on my bike since I purchased it in May 2016. I wasn’t looking for a touring bike when I bought it, but I did have a feeling when I was looking at it that it would be possible that I’d be doing a tour, having done a bit of touring when I was younger.
Maybe I’m just looking for an excuse to carry this many bags?
Heading out on a cross country trip you’ll want a bike you can rely on; you’ve definitely got that.
