They have just got a great new bike in store that I'm very excited about the World Randonneur which is Vivente new touring bike. It is a cro-mo frame for durability and comfort, Tiagra triple groupset with a nice range of gears, Nitto Randonneur bars, Tubus Racks front and back and Scmidt LED dyanamo lights front and rear for safety. The best part about it all is that is only $1750
Though with some other mods ..I Like Mods... it will cost me about $2200.
ie; new tracking bars , new gearing 44/32/22 ratio, tire liners , extra water bottle  location, Brooks saddle B67,,,

And Dizz... there is always that risk m88y....especially looking at Bungy's aviator ...ahahah

You are really gonna turn some heads with that Cap..

Does it come with one o those orange flags on a pole???

Also some clothes pegs and a few playing cards required for the wow noise factor.

Cheers all
Chris aka FDG Stitch was a top bloke and we gamed for many years with him.. so sad to hear the news today (23-09-2018), only a couple years older than me..(ADF-Cheech) LIFE is SHORT...May Stitch rest in peace, condolences to his family and his friends here and beyond ADFTEAM.

You need one of those playing cards in the spokes to make that clackity clack noise and a big pole with the fluro yellow flag on it - apart from that - looks good to me :)
