Even if our bikes are old like senior citizens, they can still be used as long distance touring bikes.
The picture abowe shows Sören Skoog and Sivert (not them, their bikes) passing the Polar Circle on their way to the Club Meet in Kiruna 1985.
Others are more interested in trips to the south of Europe. Here below we can see two swedes (one at the other side of the camera) that seem to be lost on a small road on Corsica. Interesting is that the distance to drive is about the same from south of Sweden (ferries not included).
