It was cold, freezing cold. I had obviously done a lousy job at packing the right clothes for bicycle touring Turkey. Thankfully, I decided to throw in a pair of gloves at the last minute.
I rode on thru the morning. Slowly the buildings peeled away, and the countryside began to creep in. Finally, I was on the coast. With the Sea of Marmara on my left and a patchwork of fields on my right, the cycling was beautiful. It was precisely what I had signed up for.
In preparation for my upcoming tour of Iceland, I wanted to make some touring bicycle upgrades to my Surly Ogre. To start, I wanted power. I wanted a solution for charging electronics while touring. I also needed more storage. Unlike my previous tour of Southeast Asia, I will need to carry a tent, food, fuel, and other camping supplies.
After completing my first ever bicycle tour, I immediately got home and booked another trip. After five weeks of touring Southeast Asia, I couldn’t wait to get back out there. The plan was to cycle Iceland’s Ring Road, but I wanted to make some upgrades to my bike. Here you will find the specs on the custom bicycle touring wheels I order through ProWheelBuilder.com
