1 Break chased down: Fred attacked us. That wasn’t going to stand.
1 Pathlete left nonplussed: Hammered past us, aerobars, messenger bag (?!). But at the riser/chicane past 35th street park, there he is with a flat tire. William: “you need a tube?!” Pathlete, confused, thinking these 4 on tandems are possibly making fun of him: “Uhhhhhh, I don’t know...” Me: “Ok, suit yourself.” Three of us had tubes.
William and Charlotte attacking us:
But Maggie and I countered:
If tandem biking were a first-person shooter game - I'd be loading my grenade launcher for that Navy Pier bike car just ahead:
Nice socks:
The view didn't suck:
Neither did the food:
These things are weird. At very low speeds there is a ton of lateral movement - you feel like you are riding on flat tires or that tar patching when it's hot out - much more stable the faster you get:
Toes, raspberries, sunset:
How bromantic:
