Is a RTW bike a "Ride to Work" bike? :)

I assume you won't be packing quite so much gear Tom?

You assume right! Although rear wheel traction is incredible with 23 kg of water over the back wheel...
Will be running with handlebar bag and stuff strapped on top of a rear rack I think. Had to rebuild rear wheel last night, was up til 2 doing it. Servicing disc brakes tonight. Hope it all holds together. Can't wait
