Dan Birchett @dbirchett.bsky.social · 05/07/2026I saw something amazing today. A middle aged lady on a steel, low entry, touring bike. With panniers on the rear and a basket on the front.

Had some Schwalbe Marathon Plus 700x38c (tubed) kicking about so fitted them. They’re quite different to ride on. Will see how they last in comparison. #cycling #activetravel 000
