Soon to be tandem owner
I've been looking for a cheap bike to ride to see if I will like riding again after 30+ years of not riding. Just something/anything to ride around on and maybe down a trail or two. I saw a ad this morning for free bikes. I called and she said she had "two adult mountain bikes and a bicycle built for two". She didn't know much about them except the tandem has "big fat tires and was a blast to ride". & "They have been sitting a long time and would probably need some work." Heck I've got plenty of oil,grease and elbow grease so I'm ready. She said she would hold them for me and give me a call when her husband gets them dug out for me to see. It's kinda like before Christmas... you know you have something but you don't know what it is and you have to wait to see. I'll post back as soon as I get them. , Mike
