In addition to building a recumbent and converting some of the bits left over to a fixed I've decide
I can justify one more wedgie, at least to myself if not my partner or the bank balance.
Firstly, I don't have a road racing bike. I don't race after all. But, I would like something for
training rides that it a bit lighter and faster than my tourer.
Secondly, although running is my main competitive activity I know a lot of du- and tri-athletes and
one day I'm going to end up saying yes---and no doubt end up with wobbly legs.
Thirdly, I have always fancied giving cyclocross a go. It's possibly an irrational urge but
what the heck.
Is there a single sensible (type of) bike that would have the potential, with switching of tyres or
whatever, to fulfill all three roles? Or would I be more sensible just taking the rack and guards
off my tourer and saving my money for something else?
