Lee from Worcester

Lee's friend, Paul, collected our Gloucestershire based blue Orbit tandem in mid-January 2018. They plan to take part in the Peopleton Duathlon in late February. Lee wrote on our Facebook site in early February, "The bike road well: took a little adjusting to obviously after just riding a skinny solo road bike, but soon got into it and looking forward to more training next Saturday.
Lee did well particularly since he normally just runs so all being well things should go well."
