In the months before we started riding from San Diego in March, several of us were scrambling to determine if our current bikes would work well on the Spring 2013 van-supported Southern Tier tour. For any future tour riders and for documentation, here are our bikes, the real heroes of the ride. They are a variety of makes and styles, as you will see below. So one take-away is there is no one "right" bike for the van-supported Southern Tier tour. A big thanks to Terry, who collected the bike information below earlier.
