Not a lot of touring, but 20 years of daily commuting, about 5 miles a day.

Specialized Crossroads diamond frame. I also pull a Yakima one-wheel trailer.

No fears

I play the folk harp, and will carry a small harp with me on the ride.

Harping for Harmony Foundation

10. Anything else you'd like to share with us?

After my bike broke down in Cumberland last year, I ended up driving Nick Hein to DC, and rode around with him for a day on one of his extra recumbants. Great bike! .
