Tandem Trekkers \u2013 Hull-Hornsea with Beech Holme<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Awaking to heavy rain at some frightfully early hour there was a quick debate with potential riders about going or not going and the opinion was it was only raining on Drew so we should go.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Our new storage has a totally undercover loading area so despite the fact that the rain was following Drew it was not able to get him wet whilst he was loading 5 tandems. Yeah. \ud83d\ude0a<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Off the trailer went with the rain pursuing Drew as far as somewhere around Goole where it decided it had had enough and buggered off.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Arrival and unloading and meeting and greeting the Beech Home folk was undertaken in the dry, albeit under a grey sky. As the day progressed the sun did come out and stayed out for the duration. Yeah 2. \ud83d\ude0a<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The ride was the usual combination of cycle track tarmac and mud (boo) and quiet lanes with the odd busy bit in Hull to and from Beech Home HQ.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The usual splendid fish and chip dinner was very quickly served up by the staff at Whiteheads in Hornsea at the lunch stop (they\u2019re in the top 10 F&C shops in the UK you know\u2026.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Plenty energy for the return trip by a different route to last year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

All in all a great if long day. And a goodly 33 miles ridden. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

At no point however will it be mentioned that someone\u2019s stoker put the parking brake on during a stop and forgot to mention it to said pilot, rather asking \u201cwhy aren\u2019t we going?\u201d for the first two failed attempts at forward motion\u2026..Yeah 3. \ud83d\ude0a<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Drew (the wet one)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
