If you - as well as the bike - begs for off-road duties - then plan a trip into the unknown via the layer OSM Cycle on http://www.ridewithgps.com (export as TCX to your Garmin and let it guide you around).
Going through the the usual phases from fixie skidding to racing road bikes to cross, I've now arrived at touring. And I'm pretty stoked on the idea of leaving work on Friday afternoon to disappear for a couple of days.
So I got a good deal at my lbs for the Specialized Awol Comp, which is sort of a blank canvas. Good geometry, the parts are decent and the bike is well rigged for mounting whatever needed.
