I ride a Windsor Tourist as a daily driver.

There are a lot of things I like about the touring bike when not loaded. Relaxed geometry, fenders, wider tires, 36 spokes etc. But the thing that suits my riding style more than anything is the wide range gearing and super low gears. I don’t care as much about speed and the gearing more than makes up for the few pounds of weight for me.

For me it’s like a vintage bike but with the modern touches. Things like STI shifting, triple chain rings, 700 tires etc.
