An altercation with a ridiculous and completely unnecessary height barrier rendered one of our tandems unserviceable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Undeterred, the ride set off.

Joanne &#8211; for putting up with Paul\u2026. that takes real patience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">And to everyone else, pilots and stokers alike, who displayed in abundance what Trekkers is all about.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">THANKS<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" src=\"https:\/\/tandemtrekkers.org.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/img_6858-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1915\" srcset=\"https:\/\/tandemtrekkers.org.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/img_6858-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/tandemtrekkers.org.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/img_6858-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/tandemtrekkers.org.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/img_6858-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/tandemtrekkers.org.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/img_6858-1536x1152.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/tandemtrekkers.org.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/img_6858-2048x1536.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/tandemtrekkers.org.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/img_6858-1200x900.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 709px) 85vw, (max-width: 909px) 67vw, (max-width: 1362px) 62vw, 840px\" \/><figcaption>Refreshments on the Jetty <\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" src=\"https:\/\/tandemtrekkers.org.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/eb780f8f-12a4-41ac-9b61-f6f56a8b9f39-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1916\" srcset=\"https:\/\/tandemtrekkers.org.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/eb780f8f-12a4-41ac-9b61-f6f56a8b9f39-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/tandemtrekkers.org.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/eb780f8f-12a4-41ac-9b61-f6f56a8b9f39-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/tandemtrekkers.org.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/eb780f8f-12a4-41ac-9b61-f6f56a8b9f39-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/tandemtrekkers.org.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/eb780f8f-12a4-41ac-9b61-f6f56a8b9f39-1536x1152.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/tandemtrekkers.org.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/eb780f8f-12a4-41ac-9b61-f6f56a8b9f39-1200x900.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/tandemtrekkers.org.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/eb780f8f-12a4-41ac-9b61-f6f56a8b9f39.jpg 1600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 709px) 85vw, (max-width: 909px) 67vw, (max-width: 1362px) 62vw, 840px\" \/><figcaption>Judith, Elisa, Jules, Aisha and Ahmed<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/tandemtrekkers.org.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/85473406-c594-4c8b-b284-9bd8702d9bab.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1917\" srcset=\"https:\/\/tandemtrekkers.org.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/85473406-c594-4c8b-b284-9bd8702d9bab.jpg 768w, https:\/\/tandemtrekkers.org.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/85473406-c594-4c8b-b284-9bd8702d9bab-225x300.jpg 225w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 709px) 85vw, (max-width: 909px) 67vw, (max-width: 984px) 61vw, (max-width: 1362px) 45vw, 600px\" \/><figcaption>Jules and Eric Morecambe getting to know one another <\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/tandemtrekkers.org.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/f5fcb044-8651-4023-88d6-3d1ba9676dfa.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1918\" srcset=\"https:\/\/tandemtrekkers.org.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/f5fcb044-8651-4023-88d6-3d1ba9676dfa.jpg 768w, https:\/\/tandemtrekkers.org.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/f5fcb044-8651-4023-88d6-3d1ba9676dfa-225x300.jpg 225w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 709px) 85vw, (max-width: 909px) 67vw, (max-width: 984px) 61vw, (max-width: 1362px) 45vw, 600px\" \/><figcaption>Tandems rule.
