Despite an embarrassing faux pas which meant we arrived with one tandem less than required (Paul has difficulty counting past seven!), the ride was a fitting end to our season. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Massive thanks to Nicola and Brittany who immediately volunteered to step down. A sacrifice made all the more special by virtue of the fact it was Nicola\u2019s birthday and Brittany had brought her own tandem.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But for the seven bikes that did get away, all went well. Spurred on by last week\u2019s success, Elisa once again rode like a true champion. Rumour has it she\u2019ll be leading rides next season!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Great to see Ali back in the saddle. Sorry Saudi weren\u2019t able to boss Poland as they had Argentina.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And so folks, that\u2019s it for another year. Just next week\u2019s maintenance session and then we\u2019ll be hibernating our Orbits until 2023. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

But the last words of this write up belong to Kate, who sums things up perfectly: \u201cLovely last ride of the season. Thank you for all the organisers over the year, the entertaining write ups and the stokers for all the wonderful chat and pedalling, and thank you to all of the Tandem Trekkers for making it a great first year for me. It\u2019s been lots of fun and friendship with the occasional cake \ud83c\udf70 Kate.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Hear! Hear!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
