Well we're all back from our Tandems in Tasmania adventure. What a great week; we had hills, we had head winds, we had tail winds, we had rain, we had sun and...
I love the pics and it looks like I missed out on a great trip. Tim and I are off to ride the Mekong Delta in Vietnam on the 11th of April. So I will post the...
PS. Here are some of our photos that I put up: http://www.facebook.com/album.php?aid=2015802&id=1114315228&l=ab45347e33 I uploaded them to my facebook...
Awesome photos guys! Janet and I are so jealous - looks like you all had a fantastic time. Not to mention getting flashbacks of our tandem honeymoon of Tazzie...
Don't worry Tim, with a tandem honeymoon under your belt, you're lightyears ahead of us. We only caught the tandem bug, what, barely four years ago (and we're...
Congrats on what looked like a great ride in tassie. With the demise of the NSW BigRide and the arrival of a baby I'm missing my annual ride fix! ... Jo and I...
After seeing the precision tandem pics, my Wife (Sam) wants a 4 seater! No likely says me; I'm not captaining that; two seats is plenty and anyway, I think my...
... I think you need to be paid in US dollars to buy those impressive tandems. I have been looking at the options for a triple but the US ones are eye...
Tim is now as tall as me and has not yet hit 13. Nick does not want to ride the tandem and Meg is still too small. I guess it will me Lisa and I with Meg ok...
Adrian, you'd have to double check with Tim and Janet, but we suspect that two adults on a tandem pulling a trailer would be easier than pulling it on a...
Spot on Tracey, IMHO. When towing the trailer on a half-bike, I found I got this really weird 'oscillating' effect where I felt the trailer alternatingly...
Tracey, ... Certainly, Damon loves the extra downhill speed and he's always looking at the max value when he stokes but I think after Tassie he enjoys the...
After the success of the Tas ride I have been thinking about the next one. Feel free to suggest alternatives. All but one of these ideas are pretty vague. ...
You'd have to count us out for another Tasmanian adventure so soon. The expense - and distance, involved - in getting there just isn't something we could...
The Leigh family thoroughly enjoyed the Tas ride and definitely be interested in next years adventure. We have a wedding to attend in NZ in mid February so an...
Hi Malcolm and I had a chat about this last night and can understand where Tracey is coming from. We think January would be too hot on the mainland (and...
... Jo and I did a four day loop out of Tumbarumba in March 2007 inspired by the 2006 RTA big ride that I'd gone on. We went Tumbarumba -> Tumut -> Gundagai...

Mulling over where to go it occurred to me that there is a bit of a Catch 22 - to suit not interfering with school end of Jan is a good time but most of the...
Even more of a catch 22, I doubt we'd be able to book campgrounds for such a number in January.... wherever, but particularly Tasmania. All reasons why I...
hi summarised wade response: * can't think of anywhere on the mainland that is cool in jan (even snowy mountains are hot at that time of year). * happy for...
Thoughts from the Leighs: I agree. Cool, January and Australian mainland are not phrases often used together. Leighs could do mid term, but less preferred. ...
The Williams family is presently cycling the Mekong Delta. It is hot, very hot. But we have another four days and it is great. Ken Williams From my PDA...
No real tandem content but did anyone watch the SBS broadcast of the Paris- Roubaix? I watched the start and in good Tour de F style watched the end as a...
Must admit I did the same but then I did sit up last year after the O'Grady win the year before. It was the 2007 win by an Aussie that prompted SBS to start...
Chris I did exactly the same. I watched it to within about 35kms of the end and then pressed record for the morning finish. The cobblestones surface was quite...
In the wet it is an even better race to watch - especially through the forest and the cobblestones. SBS used to do a one-hour package before they started...
