The Caledonia Way

The Caledonia Way is a somewhat unusual long distance cycling route. While it's mostly on minor roads, you can't ride the whole thing on a road bike. There are at least three sections where it heads into distinctly off-road territory. Not full mountain bike country, but rough enough to give anyone on a 23-25mm skinny tyre a hard time with skids and pinch flats. Touring 28mm and upwards would be fine. The other curious thing is that the National Cycling Network seems to dis-own a few sections.

I first had a bike fit at Cyclefit, then the bike was built up to my precise, individual requirements. The whole process, and the comfort of the resulting bike, has been a revelation. I've already sold my Camino, and my Vielo V+1 and Fara might go the same way. The Boxer fits so well, I don't want to ride anything else! It has SRAM Eagle eTap drive-train, and because my old legs want to tour off-road, the rear 12-speed cassette is 10-52 with a 38T chainring. Tyres - mostly...
