Andy I have read about the competitive riding / racing you do and if I were at your level of riding I would certainly pursue a much more rigorous level of maintenance. However with that in mind, honest, I was just playing around with the seasonal aspect of it because I feel very fortunate having the great winters we have here in St. George (and good riding, if you like plenty of hill work) and was smuggly bragging that up. I wish I had myself, and stoker at your level of physical condition because even though I'm just an old guy now I still have a pretty wide streak of competitiveness in me. I admire your discipline.

Anyways, being in the land of no other year round resident tandem riders, my stoker and I ride, always on the lookout for other performance tandems and even better singles when we are on the flats and down hill. Hope to see you out here one day, Enjoy, Scott
