Just ridiculously skillful. This is my favourite thing on the internet.

A classic tandem, clearly loved, hanging forlornly on a garage wall and unused because the owner ‘has no one to ride with now’! Why not? What’s happened to your riding partner? Have they passed? Divorced? I need to know more, I’m half tempted to get in touch with the seller just make sure...

Yeah, the ride is ‘of its time’ I would say.

I’ve not purchased a bike from a bike shop for 17 years.
