Have to admit that most of the comments I overhear about me are the other way round. Just face it- a couple of Old gits on a Tandem ain't going to go very fast. Did a ride in 2003 and at one of the rest stops the young bucks were talking about the number of "OLD" riders attempting this ride. None of the olduns had a chance of finishing and "Did you see the grandad on the Tandem- They probably packed in at the 20 mile mark." This was at the 65 mile mark and we let them go ahead of us and as we flew past them on the downhill- Stuart just yelled out "The 20 milers are passing on the right" He then took them on the left and they never saw us.
