Mrs Turbo here, real working girl and power stoker. Coaching your stoker on their aero form is akin to telling your stoker we are not pedaling hard enough. We don’t like it. But I must be doing something right with a nice list of achievements in 2012, like this one, not our longest ride but 8 hours at over 20mph and less than 15 minutes off the saddle; must mean I’m in decent aero form! Beyond the aero form, I know Mr Turbo appreciates most my climbing legs and willingness to ascend more than most any other tandem in the country 2012. With 350k feet we spend far more time climbing than in any other form, and that makes or breaks our performance. Like Mrs Ritterview, when I hear my captain coach me about aero form I think he pictures me riding like this:

Give the stoker some credit, and approach your aero coaching cautiously.
