I have been on the lookout for a new travel wheel for quite some time (my Traveller has been getting too banged up from going in and out of the house and RV), but the Ashford Joy was never really on my radar, mainly because I never thought I’d have the budget for it, even when buying one that was used. As luck would have it, today I met the nicest woman who was downsizing and wanted to re-home a couple of her wheels. She offered me an amazing 2-for-1 deal, and now my herd of spinning wheels has grown from 3 to 5!
The Joy (with the freedom flyer!) will become my new travel buddy, and the Traditional will teach my kids how to spin. Both are single drive, which might take a little getting used to (I have all three of my other wheels set up for double drive), and both are in need of some restoration work, but I feel fortunate to have them and I am excited to put the work into making them both shine once again!
