Taken on my recent camping jaunt around South Eastern Australia, much of it off the beaten track on gravel roads and trails. I love this bike - have had it for 20 years. It started off life as an off the shelf drop bar touring bike, however there are very few original parts remaining

Due to the heat and lack of access to fresh water at times on this trip, I had to carry a water bag in each front pannier.

I prefer old school panniers with low center of gravity. I am yet to understand this modern concept of hanging heavy bags from one's handlebars and seatpost
