But on the other hand, I've come to terms with the idea of owning more than one bicycle. I pick them up sometimes... more than I need... and can't seem to get rid of them. If this bothers you, don't go there!

Want a touring bike? Start looking on Craigslist, mostly near, but also a little farther away. It doesn't have to be new. I'd only buy a new bike if completely sure I'd never find one used.

There's nothing wrong with 26" wheels, by the way. You can get an impressive variety of tires.
