The ultimate touring machine, the Litespeed BLUE RIDGE is set up for the long haul. We shaped the geometry to give you a more relaxed upright riding position. We stretched the wheel base for effortless tracking under heavy loads. And we added rack and fender mounts to give you a place to put those loads. The BLUE RIDGE is an exceptionally strong lightweight bike that is built to haul ass while hauling a load. It's kinda like a camel on wheels.
