bike swerve
When I was younger and rode tandems with women, an argument always seemed to ensue, probably engendered by trying to merge two different riding styles.

Thus, our pet name for the tandem -- the divorcycle. My wife was a racer and a strong climber, and I would push her up climbs, typically drag racing some friend on a single. One day, I pushed her too hard, so she just stopped trying -- on a pretty steep climb. I got the message. All the sudden its like I had 130lbs of panniers. At least she kept spinning her legs around. Tandems will do all sorts of things when the riders are out of sync. -- Jay Beattie. |

I doahn get much grip on class 3 rapids but flat out runs down the mtn are acceptable.....I figure its the enclosure and lack of demand to control...passivity rules |
