Title: First ride for new tandem
Post by: christie on March 18, 2015, 07:06:38 PM

Keith has now taken delivery of his new tandem, and after Andy gave it its maiden ride last night, today we gave it a full road test. It's fitted with 11 speed Di2 dual controls (pilot and stocker), though for me I leave Keith do 99% of the gear shifting as it gives me something to talk about :D. Its like driving an automatic car :D
The bike rides really well and if anyone is looking for a few strava sections on flat roads then this is the machine to do it on. I predict it will do really well on the club TT this year. It climbs well, not sure what cassette is on the back but the front chainrings are 52-36.
Anyway you can see the ride we done below all done at a comfortable pass and never really pushing hard, all made for a very enjoyable day out.

Can't access that route Keith, it needs people to log in to a Garmin account.

You know what they say these days - if it ain't on Strava it never happened!
