Weirdest thing you saw while out on your bike ?
Out on my local trail, tearing it up yesterday. Came rapidly up behind a family of 4, daughter up front who'd got off to walk, mom who was encouraging the daughter to carry on and then i noticed dad with younger son, bringing up the rear on a tandem!! - well to be fair it's probably classed as a tag-a-long or something but MASSIVE respect to dad . Not a battery between 'em.
My initial feeling was "oh great, a family taking their bikes out for a walk around MY singletrack!!' but fairly rapidly changed to saying " no, no, it's alright. Carry on to the end of this section" as they all tried to get out of the way, bless 'em " it's not far now".
They were holidaymakers and apparently this was the 3rd year they'd done it.
Sometimes you just gotta smile.
Kids, you got the coolest parents!!
