2010 Inaugural Voyage


Brewskies Route: 21.07 miles
Comments: Ride Time was 1 hours 41 minutes, average speed: 12.4


This was our first tandem ride of the 2010 season. The bike returned from its check-up on Saturday and the weather was nice enough Sunday (64°, slight wind) to put the new tires to a test. The bike rode like it was brand new—No funny noises or shifting problems! We did overdress for the day, which we tend to do each new season. I had on my layered fleece, long bike pants and overshoe booties and became very warm just a few miles down the road. It was so great to be back on the bike and we are very thankful for this early spring opportunity. Many vehicles welcomed us as a sign of spring returning. Their smiles said it all: Veerkamps are on the road, it must be spring.
