Dawsey, Dawsey

Well as you can see from the previous posts, myself and 3Ply are getting a Dawes tandem - I say getting quite deliberately as I am contributing not a penny towards the bike, so thanks go to Mr Stagliano for his generosity. I am looking forward to getting it and it will be lovely to actually be within talking distance of 3Ply for the whole journey - I'm sure it will be quite a relief for 3Ply not to have to wait for me on a regular basis as I struggle along, instead I will be struggling along directly behind him. Of course I am a little nervous about the possibilty of falling over and as a bit of a wuss, the speedy decent aspect causes me a bit of fear, but I think I'll get used to it. It will mean putting a lot of faith in Mr S, but that's no problem as he is a fine and safe cyclist - I'm hoping I can sit back and enjoy the scenery, maybe helping to pedal the odd time, if I feel like it!


Before you say anything 3Ply, the answer is no!!

Getting tyres and spare spokes for a tandem like the one pictured might be a bit of a problem.

Oh, and as for the main writings in your post, you do yourself a great disservice in all ways. You're not a struggler and we're getting a tandem, not me. Since when did I have my own money?
