Randy Castle of Minnesota USA cycle tourist

Randy Castle is a cycle tourist from Minnesota, USA. I met him on the Trans-Iberian trip in April 2008 when he joined the expedition just south of Madrid. The most unusual feature of his touring is the rig that he uses. It is a folding 'Bike Friday' with a yellow suitcase trailer by 'Samsonite'.
I met Randy again in 2009 when we teamed up at Reims in France to cycle through Belgium and Holland to reach Amsterdam. Another fine trip.
Randy is a veteran of a number of 'Great Rides Across Iowa' in which 10,000 cyclists ride 500 miles across the State in a week.
Maybe I will get to tour with him again in the future. Will see.
