    Bike Fridays are very comfortable to ride, and since the geometry is the same as a larger-wheeled bike, and the saddle is the same height, you honestly don't realize that you're on a small-wheeled bike. They ride very much like their big-wheeled sisters, I promise! I'm not the OP, but here's a pic of me not-quite-riding my Pocket Crusoe on a loaded tour a few years ago. Hopefully enough to get the idea...

    Thanks for the pic! I'm totally in awe of anyone who rides a bike with all that gear attached!

    I will post pics of me and the bike soon. Just gotta get my DH to take em. It does feel like a regular bike. It actually handles much better than my last bike. I would guess that's because this bike was actually fitted to me, where as the last one wasn't. And because this bike is about 5lb lighter than my old one.
