The Concept
Find somewhere with your first name, then travel to somewhere with your surname. I chose to cycle from Sean Uisge (River Sean) to Lough Conway (Lake Conway)

The Bike
Stanforth Conway Fast Tourer
Simon Stanforth and I combined forces back in 2017 to create this beautiful Reynold 853 steel touring bike. I used this exact one for my across Europe cycle record. It's comforatable and fast for lightwright touring. Find out more about getting one for yourself here. https://www.stanforthconway.co.uk/ |
