Today I fulfilled a long stated intention to take Keith out on his tandem. After bringing my own pedals and adjusting the saddle height we were off. Keith is a very forgiving stoker and once we had our routine organised ( which foot to unclip, when to freewheel, who to signal!) it was great fun. The easiest analogy is to say it's like driving your car with caravan attached - you steer instead of lean and you need to let it do it's own thing a bit. You can crack along on the flat. Hills are very slow but I picked up some Strava PB's on the descents ( yes, I know it's cheating!). We did 26 miles ( 40mph downhill) which included a full Welsh breakfast at Hannah's diner.
I'll do it again when I can and I know Keith would be delighted if others could take him out as well....
