Back in iirc 1973 David Gidmark went to Victoria BC Canada, bought a cheap USED 10 speed with Shimano splined Selecta Drive crankset and rode it to somewhere in Newfoundland Canada. he wrote a book about that journey and titled it JOURNEY ACROSS A CONTINENT (1975Paperjacks) which kind of shows that a bicycle does not have to be expensive in order to be used enjoyably for touring.
Cheers
