Several of them to report. The other day we were flying down a modest hill on the tandem, spinning out the 52/14 and hitting 29.7 mph. When we finally slowed Sharon said "That's the kind of biking I really like!" Faster, faster! Under power, not coasting downhill.

Same day, a real C&V-rider moment. We are approaching a modest downhill and I reach down to pull the lever backwards to shift to the big ring. Except the pedals seem to spin a lot more easily. Hmm, did I throw the chain? So I return the lever, then try again. Same thing. I ask Sharon what ring are we on? (The captain can't see the chainrings very easily.) She said the middle ring. Well what the '? Then it hit me. To shift the front, use the left lever. Duh.

I did that once a few years ago, went to downshift for a steep hill coming up, shoved the lever forward, and realized it was the wrong lever. Needless to say, the bike came to a stop pretty quickly. Sharon was not amused.

What great C&V moments have you had lately?
