tandems

One of the Johns is spending the month of June working as a cycling guide for VéloSport Vacations in France at its Provence Cycling Camp. You can find regular updates here about his experiences.

Today we did a 115k ride that circled the Ventoux in a counter clockwise direction. It went through the Gorges de la Nesque. It is by far one of the best pieces of road I've ever ridden on. 22k of gentle climb with stunning views of the gorge.
The tandems did alright really. We had only 1 flat and one loosed cassete lock ring. No problem with the follow car's fully equiped tool kit.

Here's photographic evidence of the existence of the tandems. I took some close-ups of the Bike Friday. Apparently you can add or subtract sections to make it a single, double, triple, or quad. As a tandem it packs into 2 normal sized suitcases.
