The three of us will be riding Surly Long Haul Truckers; Oscar 50cm, Erika 42cm and Will 58cm.
“If you want to carry a lot of stuff 
while riding your bike long distances, you’d be hard pressed to find a better bike than the Long Haul Trucker. It starts with the frame, whose custom drawn 4130 tubing and geometry were specifically designed for loaded travel, low bottom bracket for stability, long head tube, long stays, the whole thing. We added braze-ons for everything you’re likely to need. We gave it parts that are durable and long lasting, and ready to travel. Add racks, bags, fenders and what have you and go somewhere. This bike has been among our most popular models because it’s a good value and a great riding bike. Oh, and it handles short distances too. “ Surly Bikes
