...once smitten...

Best wishes for a wonderful career as a dad/captain!

And you really should post a picture on the Pictures of Happy Tandem Teams (http://www.bikeforums.net/showthread.php?t=391947) thread.

Ah, good old Stoney Creek . . . used to do that loop around lake quite regularly back in the mid-70s!
Coming off the hill at the entrance coming down Shelby Rd (?) could get you up to that speed too!
Try the UP for some longer hills!
Enjoy tghe ride TWOgether!
