Anyone waking up in Yorkshire on early Saturday, 15th October, would have been forgiven for deciding to give tandemming a miss; we were getting close to stormy weather and rain! An Autumn day indeed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Today I was paired, for the first time, with Muz and setting off from lock-up was an indication of what was in store. Where usually, the pilot says, “1,2,3 – Go” I expect a slow, gentle setting off – not today – this was having a rocket launcher at the back. As we were racing towards the greenway, we soon dumped all our responsibilities (walkie-talkie and ride pack) on a very speedy Kate and Alisa behind us. Kate relished this vital role, especially the walkie-talkie, which allowed her to natter with Martin. However, and it might have been “ENTIRELY accidental”, but she packed it deep in her hip bag (sorry Martin – I also am not sure what to make of that) – hihihihi. Good thing that Martin today with equally chatty Tim as when Muz and I did arrive at the cafe, we heard the roaring laughter from afar – yep; not a quiet bunch! Drew, I think, at the cafe, made a girlfriend who instantly clicked with him (a young Collie!), so they spend some time throwing leaves at each other – as you do – with excitable young pups!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On the final stretch Muz and I were caught up by Nicola on her solo bike and exchanged some jokes never to be repeated (I am being serious). Hihihihi<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Once everyone was back at lock up, it became clear that Agnes and Jules really did have a bit of a workout and had been cycling with the back brake not releasing – I hope your trembling legs won’t result in too much muscle ache and seriously – well done both – as that sounded a bit aarrgghhh!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Finally, an important mention for “Dog Walker Extra-Ordinaire”: Isabel! Tessa must have had a marvellous time if her cute smile was anything to go by.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So overall, this rainy, blustery start to the day turned into another fun-filled ride with friends without rain but plenty of headwinds, so, unfortunately, no land speed records were broken!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Thanks, everyone – a fab morning indeed!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
