2012-06-30 Sat/Sun - Dunwich Dynamo DD20

I want to say a MASSIVE thank you to the two southwark cyclists who gave up their seats on the last coach when it was realised that there wasn't space for me and Ale. They didn't moan, just grabbed their tandem out of the back of the truck and headed off to the nearest train station.

That was Stuart from Bike Fix and Jane from Cycle Training UK. I don't think they have anything to do with Southwark Cyclists but they did put the tea lights out earlier in the night and are mates of Patrick.

They then broke a spoke on the tandem (not theirs - belongs to a girl with mobility issues who did the ride with stuart on the front and kinda needed it to get home from the drop off) somewhere near Snape that went into the chain and some other shit to do with the proper functioning of a tandem. They had to then ride in a high gear fairly head fucked in a race for a train. Jane kept demanding Stuart to stop as her blinks were getting longer and longer. Someone needs to invent a freewheeling bottom bracket for the stoker of a tandem.

Would be nice if the two girls who turned up unprepared and didn't plan on how they'd get home to do something nice for the two of them - actually, for the tea lights alone it would be nice of everyone to do something nice for them!
