^ looks like a very classic Euro style of touring.

Perimeter Gour
I'm on day 245 on a perimeter tour of the United States. So far I have done 25 states and 8,500+ miles on my Bombtrack Hook EXT-C, running a 38 tooth chainring, 10-42 cassette, and WTB Byways on 650b's. This bike is amazing. It has taken everything I have thrown at it. Of course I've replaced things, 3 sets of brakes, 3 chains, 2 shifter cables, 4 sets of tires, and replaced the pressfit bottom bracket with a Wheels MFG threaded... 2,700 miles to go. This is the only bike in my stable that I want to ride for now on, it does everything.

I started in Massachusetts. I left May 10 and took the Northern Tier to Anacortes, Washington using Adventure Cyclist maps. From there I went to San Diego without their maps, just Ridewithgos com, following the coast the whole way, then east bound hugging the border until big bend in Texas. Went pretty much southeast and ended up in Port Aransas, then headed north hugging the coastline into Pensacola. Heading to a friend's in Lee, Fl in the next day or so then off to Miami and back up the east coast home. Taking my time now, plan on being home May 13

Is the Audax AL with micro shift 1X11 a solid bike? There's one locally " 1 hour away" in my size that looks new .It has a shock stop stem and guy is asking $1300. I can likely get if for less because guy mentioned he only rode it a couple times and he is getting married.
