Photobucket's your friend, or imageshack as you don't even need to register for that

ahhh but I am at work so they ban stuff like that I'm afraid. No fun to be had here!
😛

not mine (would have been if i'd had the space, money, bravery and a willing stoker) but this was for sale a little while ago over on LFGSS.

mail me your pics and I'll put them on imageshack for you - mail in profile

huws, that looks a bit uncomfortable for the stoker

Thanks. The mud build up that day left us with three working gears at the end: fortunately middle ring and three in the center of the block.

Them tyres were just too big for the frame.

Thank NBT. Not that I can see what you have hosted for me as it is blocked from work. Could be any old bus! 😀

Ooh ooh great photos.

We rode our second ever tandem night ride last night and nbt cleared a very tricky descent, was stoked up after (get it?) had my heart rate up I can tell you. Went to bed feeling very happy.

I think the time where my heart rate really goes up (not effort related) is when the back end goes and I think I'm about to be overtaken by the stoker. Its errrrr exciting when piloting so goodness knows what that feels like when you are the stoker!

Question for all stokers:

I find that without a crud catcher on a frame tube somewhere, I'm getting wet and cold from spray and mud coming up from the front/middle. Where should I put one (have one on the back tyre, so that bit is fine)?

We have one on the front down tube, I think TJ&J do too.

Just found this old thread and thought I'd post some pictures of our Lapierre.[img] [/img]

This collection wouldn't be complete without....

1976 the hot summer built up an old track/fixed tandem which we got off my mates uncle and rode it to school we got banned and sold it for peanuts

we have two but I don't have access to pictures here..

quite an old pic - the one on the back now gets the seat with the pedals more often than not.

The collection wouldn't be complete without more
