I brought up the idea of my girlfriend and i doing abit of cycle touring to Thailand and beyond yesterday, but although she's up for the idea she said she's not sure she trusts herself on an individual bike, so i then thought - ''tandem'', then i thought - ''that's gay as fcuk'', then i thought - ''it will be a new experience!''....then i thought - ''they are so bulky, what about transporting it if needed?''. Did abit of web searching and one site says tandems are 50% faster than regular bikes! Seems not as gay as i first thought.
It opened up a shit load more questions ;
Should i just buy her a regular bike and let her get used to the roads here? Surely if she gets used to the roads here she will be prepared for anywhere?
Shit, the roads in Thailand are so civilized compared to here.
Where to look for tandems?
Better buying overseas?
Best place for looking for used tandems?
What are they like on hills?
What are the best cycling forums to ask this sh!t?
Cheers
