Hello All,

Just wanted to share some pics from a 300k Brevet out to Healdsburg/Russian River on a tandem.

It's a wonderful route with a nice variety of terrain and scenery.

I currently use a Nikon Coolpix AW100-it's weather proof. On nicer days, I use a Nikon Coolpix S9100 for greater zooming capabilities

Very Nice!! I am going to show this thread to my wife/stoker. I have done a couple SR series on my recumbent. She and I have done some long unsupported rides up to 150 miles. Hopefully this will help convince her to ride some brevets with me on the tandem.

The SFR 300K looks like a beautiful and challenging ride. I may want to start her off on something a little more docile but I would really like to do that ride sometime.

Fred,

The 200k's are a great way to ride together on a tandem. The time limits are very generous and there are plenty of control stops.
Good luck!
