w2f,
Even though Victoria has all the hallmarks of civilization,(McDonald's, 7-11, Starbucks) we are actually a small town. From the shop it is just a little over a mile to water in almost every direction. Even old decrepit me can walk from the shop to downtown 1.1mi. in less than 30 min. And that includes stopping for a coffee on one block, and a fresh bagel on the next.
Too bad you have a thing against 'bent bikes. I have a long wheel base, under seat steering aluminum "Infinity" at the house. Gear ratio from 18.5" to 115". 64 gears. I chickened out when I hit 85mph on level ground drafting behind a semi.
Bikes are everywhere here and I'm sure we can find you something in a coaster brake, wicker basket, streamers from the handlebars & balloon tired kind of bike.
For those who still haven't found lodging I still have one sofa bed, a guest room across the street and a chunk of floor under the shop layout table free.

OUCH! Not exactly a "thing against." I'm up for a spin on your machine, if you'll allow it.
Kilted on a "wedgie" seems problematic enough, but kilted on a 'bent has got to be impossible.
