Chris Froome style?
Or you going to disappoint us with flat pedals and trainers

The trouble with cleats on a tandem is that you both need to pedal off together, the cranks are mechanically linked, you can’t both pause and faff around trying to clip the trailing leg in or you risk stalling and falling off.
Well maybe better riders could but we decided not to risk it

Mrs FT was talking to a friend and said “it’s great, I never realised how easy tandemming is. We rode across the whole island without breaking a sweat.”
I said nothing, but promise you I broke a sweat 
It’s a great leveller though, allows both riders to put in as much as they feel like & still get there at the same time.

Ended up doing the local parkrun this morning, it was pacer day so ended up doing 25 minute.
Was about on schedule with 1K to go and only had one lad following me, although I was half thinking he might need a defib the way he was panting 
Was a bit quicker in the last K and let him go for a sprint finish with 300m to go.
Time was about 24:40 so not bad.
Run Number 196 I think

I ran past a 90yo today but an 80yo sprinted past me at the finish.

One of the V70’s from our club ran 20:30 and thought the first 3k wasn’t fast enough!
