Tandem Cycling - Ironman Tandem couple

Tandem at the Ironman World Championships, Kona (http://www.spgym.com/images/2onbike.jpg)

this should take you to a picture of my wife and I riding our tandem at the Ironman Triathlon World Championships (2001)

Angie was the first-ever physically challenged female to compete at the Ironman World Champs.

Hey southportgym, I like those jersey's that you're wearing, and for that matter your whole outfit is coordinated and matching, I'm a big fan of matching stuff on the tandem, so it's good to see again...But the jersey's, both color and design, I would say very appropriate for where you were riding!!..

Great job, and keep it up!!

Thanks Benjamin-

Actually, B&L Bike Shop is a shop in Kona that hooked us up while we were there. We did a bunch of televsion/internet interviews, and they were filming us during the event, so B&L thought it would be good exposure for us to wear their stuff. Great folks out there!!!
