haha, well I wish that was the case, then I could rest up during the journey!

No, its a kind of mountain bike / road bike cross. It has larger 28" wheels like a road bike, with semi-slick style tyres but their mid width (between road bike and mountain bike) for balance of less friction but some off road grip. Has a mountain bike style frame and riding position.

Typical mountain bike - 16kg
typical road bike / racer - 11kg
My bike - 13.5kg
