We were riding our tandem on a path in southern Florida when we came up on three women riding side-by-side. We rang our bell as we approached. I swear, I think they all thought they were hearing bells in their heads. They wouldn't make room. Obviously they were ignorant of the rules we all know and abide by...hear a bell? get out of the way...can't blame em I guess. We ended up nosing our wheel in between them and muscling our way through, they scattered...could have been worse, but we were tired, it was hot and we were close to our destination and really weren't in the mood to be overly polite with their ignorance.

Hi I'm Gus and I'm the captain on a tandem team ... Now you all know my one and only bicycling sin, I feel liberated!
