Busy weekend and despite the weather we did manage to get out for a bit of a ride.
Just a meander around the local back roads on the Flying Scot tandem but still it was good to be out.
It still needs the bottom bracket replaced but am just waiting on the TA crank puller so I can take it out and measure what I need.
It will soon get a full strip down when I do the BB, change the front handlebar and levers and maybe change the bar end gear levers to downtube as well as new cables etc.
For now we have it good enough to do day rides etc and will tweak it to suite ourselves as we go. Caleb is certainly loving it though, always happy and smiling, rushes in the door whenever we get home to tell mum of his adventures. I'm glad as he was keen beforehand but you never know until he tries it for himself. So for now all good. He has also picked up the tandem way of riding really quickly and we don't have any problems with staying in sync when stopping or starting.
Anyway here are a couple of photos as usual and also me sporting my new Audax Ecosse wool jersey that finally arrived Saturday.
Hope you have all had a good weekend and managed to get a ride in at some point.
