The great thing about climbing is that every mountain has a top! And you get to go downhill.
We did a short charity ride on the tandem over the weekend and the first half was all uphill, climbing 1300+ feet in fifteen miles of mostly dirt roads. Tandems don't like going uphill and the 130 year old team isn't too good at it so we struggled to stay in contact with the peleton. But we left the feed station with the leaders. No one had a chance of staying with us on the downhill as we sat upright and coasted back to the start at 40 mph. My stoker was screaming all the way, only later did I realize it wasn't pure joy! Now, riding into the wind seems to go on for ever, and when I turn around that dang wind seems to turn too. michael -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
