Biking is something that we have wanted to do together and she has little to no experience on bikes. So forcing her to learn all about biking and the responsibly of being captain all at once may force her away from the sport, not into it.
Also someone else bought up a good point. The height difference isn't too large, so we may be able to trade positions once she becomes comfortable on a bike which would be great!
Thanks for your post
No worries. Tandemming is about working with your partner to figure it out & work together. From here, it sounds like you are off to a good start.
