Various elements of my family got together the other week-end to celebrate my father's 76th birthday. This meant that I got a rare opportunity to talk to my step-brother who lives in Australia. It turned out that cycling from LEJOG is on both our 'bucket lists'. On learning this the conversation took a darker turn and before I knew it step-bro and I had shaken on an agreement to attempt same in 2010, even more unfortunately this event was captured on camera. We kicked about various ideas and one of which was whether to do the ride on a tandem. What say you fellow forum-eers? Is it madness? I am a reasonably fit (in the cardiovascular sense) cyclist, my step-brother intends to become so. Given that we will have almost no opportunities to train together on a tandem might we be better letting discretion overcome valour? I am interested to hear your views.
