Our recruitment drive for new pilots continues. Elliott (aged two) is hoping to join us shortly.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Pilot shortage, coupled with a flu-like bug doing the rounds, meant that the enjoyment of our ride up the Greenway, in glorious Autumn sunshine, was restricted to just four tandems this morning.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

That said, it looks like the recently experienced days of struggling to get front seat riders are about to end\u2026.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Elliott, pictured above, who we met on the Greenway, is very keen to sign up and has promised to put the word out to his friends at nursery. Aged two, he\u2019s already a very accomplished young cyclist and I\u2019m sure he\u2019ll be a great asset to Trekkers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I said above, he was a very accomplished rider. Look closely, the bike is stationary and both Elliott\u2019s feet are off the ground and he\u2018s perfectly balanced. Impressive or what!!!!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
