Very Nice.. i didn't even know Trek still made steel frames. What is the weight of the bike, without the luggage?

Thanks.. that is not so bad.... almost as heavy as my Trek 4500 mtb. Kudos to you for lugging that bike across the US!!

It was about 50 pounds, all loaded up. It wasnt too bad, with the mountain triple gearing, it was fun!

Cool!, did you participate in some kind of Trans-Am race, or did you do the cross-country trip on your own?
