I would reach for my Bike Friday Air Glide w/suspension beam for all-day comfort. I don't mind the time spent packing and unpacking because the ride more than makes up for it.

That Air Glide is amazing! I don't see it for sale on the Bike Friday site. Is that a discontinued bike? What's the longest ride you've taken it on?
