We could only go for one day; but it was quite a day after all.
There were lots of beautiful tandems everywhere




but it was really really windy


not kidding about the wind, look at the trees!


even the baby trees were bending over~ ! lucky for us
when we took this shot, we were flying WITH the wind



this is a bike for 4 people!


most of the time I followed behind the tandem. Here I am
grinding up a hill.


photo op! photo op! Raleighdon wanted a picture of the tandem
behind the row of tractors that were parked along the side
of the road!


so they rode through some Goathead thorns to pose at end of the tractor line. Very picturesque, don't you think?


oops, did I say goathead thorns? can you say,
one spare tube and one spare tire is NOT ENOUGH sometimes?
Thanks to the good samaritans we met along the side of the road, we were able to ride out of this mess!!


Kind of like pulling teeth!


Lucky for us, Raleighdon is great at changing tires!


another screaming descent! awesome!


here's a family of 6 ... all matching, cute


here's some slightly tired folks eating their well-earned lunch
see DS's GF, Raleighdon's stoker, on the ground..
