after a long search we found a store where we can try a tandem and one where we can buy one!
After searching for almost a week, we came across a relatively large bike store where we can buy a tandem with accessories. Unfortunately, this store has no tandems to try out in stock. But luckily one of the customers of this store is a bike and tandem rental store. As soon as the weather is a bit better, we will rent a tandem there to see if a Cannondale tandem is something for us and what size is good for us.
Talking about the weather: At the moment it is frueling cold here. The snow line has dropped again and an icy wind is blowing through Christchurch, so that we are always glad to have warm jackets and caps on the way to school in the morning.
