      Love everything of it.▫▫▫>share4.photo/TandemBik?ラ   The most of all: Every time we pass some one, we often hear, "she was not pedaling…". I assembled it myself, you have to be mechanically inclined, otherwise bring it to a local bike shop, they may charge a fee, but it still worth it.

      My 98-year-old father, who was born in the UK, thoroughly enjoyed this Vlog as he and my mother tandemmed across Canada (Quebec to Vancouver) in 1953 on their honeymoon. They met at a cycling club in Manchester called 'the Spartans.'
