 ... need the neck muscles of a bull and the gritty determination of a marathon runner to go a tank's distance owing to the plank like seat. However…if you read Bike magazine, Dan Walsh is taking the same bike around the world. So this brings me on to the merits of the bike. If you can accept 70 mph crusing speeds this bike is winner and I can shed some light on Dan's choice.
