Hello All,
I've been reading the postings on the sight for awhile now and this is my first
time posting to the list. Lake county Riv rider, thats about 2 1/2 hours north
of San Francisco. My wife and I have been riding our tandems now for 30 years
and waiting for the first Rivendell tandem.
I'm about 2/3 of the way through it. So far, (in my own opinion), its
a great cycling adventure story for non-cyclists.
That is one reason I get so excited about the Riv Reader to hit the
mailbox. I crave a lot of detailed information about the technical
aspect of cycling...the what's and how's

Hey Guys,
It looks like you had a great ride! I wish I had the chance to join you for a
longer time than the five minutes when I caught up with you. It's always nice
to see some nice looking steel bikes on the road. During my ride, I saw mostly
carbon Treks, Cervelos, and a few Cannondales. I
You might check out Co-Motion here in Eugene, Oregon. They are
superb.

Boy it seems pretty early in the year to being doing a century, even

I've owned an older Trek steel tandem since the mid-90's. I've ridden
it with ALL kinds of people. Took on a week long organized tour one
year and rode with a different person each day. Finding a good partner
for riding tandem is a lot like finding a partner in general. I had a

Hey Jim,
I'm not a leatherworker, but hey, I got an opinion. I'd be a bit wary
of putting shellac on my Brooks. Not saying it won't do the job
you're asking of it, but I don't think it's a long term solution.
Shellac finishes hard, while there is a lot of give and take movement
in a leather
Willie had a great time. We had done a 75-mile ride on single bikes a
few months ago--he finished this ride feeling much better.
Hardest part was getting him to eat enough. He ran out of gas at
about 80 miles, so we pulled into a restaurant. He showed the salad
bar no mercy.

Absolutely gorgeous. Is that the yellow tressostar tape? How many
rolls did you use for each side of the bars, and what is your method?
I thought I could use one for each side, but clearly not enough.

Works well if you and your tandem partner are married, but not to each

The rider I stoke for has a Cannondale tandem (aka Clifford - big and
red); we've done up to a double century on it. He bought it from
friends who upgraded to a Santana. Works for us just fine. I like
