Well might pass on this year see what up next year. But very interested in
this bicycle for two. I have not never seen one while I was able to see so,
here goes some more questions about them. (one) Does both people have handle
bars? (Two) I would presume the second set if it has a second set would be a
fixed handle bar? (three) are these Traditional bikes with one fixed gear
and chain or is it with multi gears and a chain? (Four) what kind of tires
does these have, for example: street or Altering tires? ( five) what size do
they come in, like what height do they come in? (Six) Where would be a good
place to start looking at one to buy if you were in the market for one?
Thanks for any help.
Thanks,
Blackjack

Hello Black Jack,
Riding a bike is done by virtue of a tandem bike. A bicycle build
for two. The captain is the front rider and guider of the bike, the sighted
person. The second rider is the stoker the blind person. Of course both
peddle. If you've ever ridden a bike than it will be very easy for you to
adapt. Feel free to come and join us. Thanks for the questions.
Warm regards,
Mycell

Mycell,
Great to hear from you about this ride! I'm definitely going to ride
again this year but I may be able to find a captain to help me transport my
own bike to the ride this year. I'll let you know if I'll meet you all at
the mall this year for transportation.
Scott

Hi All,
Sorry for the short notice for this year's Tandem Ability Ride
event.
Lean times but willing minds and even bodies that don't want to
cooperate but we press on you know. Thanks to our faithful sponsor,
Higherground Bicycle Company and Capital City Cyclists, the event
has been
scheduled for October 31st. As has become our tradition, we will
meet at the
upper level of Sears at Governor's Square Mall, (near the automotive
department) at 7:30 a.m. and plan to return by no later than 2:00
p.m. We
will then car or van pool from Sears down to the New Port camp
grounds. You
will be responsible to get yourself to and from Sears.
The registration fee for this year's event is $10.00. It will go
towards
transportation, light refreshment and water. Please make your check
payable
to Mycell Armington and send it to her at: 2006 Casa Linda Court
Tallahassee, FL 32303 no later than October 23rd.
Other things to remember:
When cycling a long distance please dress comfortably. For this
event
bike shorts are extremely important as some of our veteran cyclist
can
attest too! Bring a light jacket also in case the wind, like last
year
gets gusty. Sunscreen and bug repellent are also important.
Socks and
solid tennis shoes are important if you don't have biking shoes.
If you
have them, biking gloves are also important to prevent blisters.
If you
have a helmet please bring it or let me know you need one. No one
rides
with out a helmet it is a safety requirement. We want you to have a
wonderful time and be safe also.
Below is a short registration form that can be cut and pasted back
to me so
I can quickly pass it on to our
other coordinators. Thank you so much for all your help and I very
much look
forward to seeing you on the cycling trail.
Warm regards,
Mycell Armington
