Read the SA adverts .... The 1200 mile Lands End , steel 3 spd record was 2 days, 19 hours, xx min. Beat that .....
Quoted from Pashley's site "The quintessential English town and country bicycle" in other words you can ride it on roads.
You pretty much proved my point on that though the "clubman" style is the original road bike and still is a type of road bike. I really don't get your need to be such a contrarianin this thread though.
