 It's More than a Bike...It's a Lifestyle
The
Tandem Lifestyle is an intangible benefit of being a tandem
owner and rider. It is as much about the relationship of captain
to stoker, as it is about the connection you share with other
tandem riders. In the late 60’s, Honda Motorcycles
launched a very successful advertising campaign — "You
meet the nicest people on a Honda." The same can be said
of tandem bicycles. Tandem riders tend to be some of the most
gregarious and friendly individuals you will meet.
Tandeming is by its very nature
more social than riding a single bike. You have someone riding
along with you every time you take your tandem bike for a spin.
One of the unwritten "rules" of being a stoker is
waving and saying hello to other riders and passersby. There's also something intangible about tandeming that breaks down barriers, opens doors and encourages conversation, even when you don't speak the same language!
Come See the World with Us!
To us, tandem travel is the BEST way to vacation and we invite you to join us. Tandem Cycle Works hosts many events, from day rides in the Front Range of Colorado, to weekend rides in the Rocky Mountain West, and beyond this to International Tandem Tours. Not only do we sell tandems at our store, but we also create opportunities for you to meet and ride with others who enjoy tandem riding.
International Tandem Tours
We have been leading tandem tours to international destinations for the past few years. We offer 1-2 trips per year. Destinations have included Ireland, Spain and Italy. In 2009-2010 Tandem Cycle Works will be taking a tandem group to New Zealand for a 2-week tour and In July 2010 we will return to Ireland for a tour of the Emerald Isle.
Memorial Day Tandem Weekend
Each year over the Memorial Day holiday weekend we host an "unofficial" tandem rally somewhere in the Rocky Mountain region. Past trips have taken us to Santa Fe, Moab, Grand Junction, Steamboat Springs and more. We often have 40-60 tandem teams join us for these weekends. They have always been great fun!
Rides along Colorado's Front Range
We often lead rides at home and invite our customers to join us. We sit on the board for the Colorado Tandem Club as well and often join other local tandem riders for fun rides in the Denver metro area.
