Cape Cod tandem ride
Wondering if anybody else is doing the NEWTS (The New England Wicked Tandem Society) ride on Cape Cod September 15th - 17th?

Hope this helps I'm not on Facebook. There is no fee for the rides the sponsoring hotel is already full. I am staying across the street.

The wonderful woman running this event is Maggie, she signed me up on a Google message board to send all the information. I am staying at the wellfleet motel across the street from the sponsoring motel that is filled up. Send her an email and she will get right back to you with details.

I'm so tired of these facebook only notices. what happened to an old fashioned website, is it too expensive? or perhaps partner with another group, bike shop, etc.
Cape cod is a great tandem destination and the seafood isnt bad either, please share

And even if you are on FB (I have a seldom used account), it’s a private group, so you would have to join to see details.

It’s actually a private event called “NEWTS on the Cape” meant for NEWTS members. The NEWTS is an informal club that runs via a Google Group and Facebook only. The OP really should have asked the question to the Google Group rather than here.

Yes, our local tandem group recently shutdown its website for cost savings. Boomers are aging out and there just aren't enough younger teams interested in tandem groups..
