  • I've somehow managed to blag my place on the back of a tandem trike for the Easter Arrow this year.

  • I've ridden a tandem trike before over a tandem weekend thing in Essex with Mark Brooking. Bloody weird contraption... and so was the trike :)

    You move the opposite way to a bike - inside foot down and lean in and the pedals are linked so you're kinda controlled. Quickly get used to what's going on though and become more of a "team" unit.

    None of this helps me get an Arrow done though. Poor no-friends hippy :(

  • Aidan is looking for more for our team. He has a regular trike you could try!

  • Well we did have a route sorted. 🤷🏼‍♂️
    I plan on jumping straight in at the deepend and attempting Oasts and Coasts on 25th April.
    If I finish that, I should be good for an arrow..
    Bear in mind, I rode less than 300km last year though, but if I do get gears, it'll be easy right?
