We spent Christmas and New Years down on Little Gasparilla Island off the coast in Southwest Florida. It requires a water taxi to get there, but we found some creative ways to ride down the beach to get to another area that allows a regular Ferry ride. As well as being cheaper, this gave us a great way to regularly make day trip cycle touring rides on the Salsa Fargo and the Surly Ogre as well as bring back groceries to feed the families. It was a great time enjoying some warm weather and sunny Southwest Florida. If you ever get a chance, be sure to check out Little Gasparilla Island

I love this part of Florida. My dad and I tarpon fish in this area quite a bit. And banyans are awesome. I'm jealous! Need to bring a bike and ride the beaches. So awesome

Flatheadfletch it’s like asking a sailor which is the best anchor. I think it’s a bit of a personal decision. Of these two, I’d probably lean towards the Fargo. But now I’m sporting an ECR and sure do love those 29x3’s ;)

Flatheadfletch minor differences compared to the ogre. Little bit longer overall frame.

Stephen White lol! I’ve thought about it a ton... but I like to minimize my flat tyre risk... btw, do you know if anyone makes a trailer with 2.5-3 in tires... or maybe tubeless? Would be weird, but that might win me over.

@BradBeaird
@BradBeaird 4 года назад
The bag on the back of the Ogre was a Arkel Tail rider with the yellow rain cover over it.

I really like surly ogre, but I want the Rohloff, belt drive configuration. The bike shop says I need to cut the frame to get the belt drive on, voiding the Warranty. So, that got me thinking about salsa. Question? You think cutting the frame on the ogre is a good idea or just settle for the Salsa?
@BradBeaird
@BradBeaird 4 года назад
I personally would have no problem cutting the frame and putting in a tube splitter from someone like Paragon Machine Works, however, you need to realize that will most likely require a repaint as well. If you haven't purchased a bike yet, then I would go ahead and look at the Fargo as it has drop out made for it already. It's a great bike.
