Tandem age contest!
 

I've learned a new term here, "tandem age" which I understand to mean the sum of the ages of the Captain and the Stoker. I also gather that the average tandem age of our members who post here is over 100. The amount of knowledge and experience out there is huge. I could be wrong but hey, let's find out? We could even get some idea of our history if we ask, what was your beginning Tandem Age (when you started with your first tandem) and your current Tandem Age. I don't know about awarding prizes, but holiday cheer to everyone. I'll start:

Beginning Tandem Age: 67
Current Tandem Age: 129

Ok, I'll play:

Beginning Tandem Age: 61
Current Tandem Age: 131

A bit of a bumpy start but
47 combined
80 currently
except my daughter prefers to ride it more so 55?

Begining tandem age combined: 117
Current: 127

Beginning 58
current 132

how fun.

1st tandem: 97
current: 144

Beginning Tandem Age: 87
Current Tandem Age: 117

Beginning Tandem Age: 55
Current Tandem Age: 116

161

Kinda puts perspective on it!
 

Beginning: 60

Current: 140

Beginning: 128
Current: 146

Beginning tandem age: 47
Current (with same stoker): 71
Most recent tandem ride: 42

WOW! OneIsAllYouNeed takes the lead in the youth category!

WOW Artmo is leading in the Sage Advice division!!!!

Maybe "Keep on Trucking" Division is a better description. Impressive. Even more impressive if your stoker is much younger than the Captain. LOL

Feels like trucking some days!
Stoker is slightly older than me, but don’t tell her I told you.😊

I started on my first tandem this year but the tandem is from 1977, so that's 43 years old. :P
Riders = 33 + 27 = 60 years

Beginning tandem age: 80 (dating, not yet married)
Current: 138

I don't remember when we started tandeming, so I'll estimate:

beginning: 118
current: 128

Wait, are we using metric or English?

Beginning 90
Current 127

Beginning = 44
Current. = 120

115 at start. Currently 123.

Start: 45
End: 139 (broken hip)

Beginning 47. Current 99.

We'll break into the triple digits in a couple of months.

Pre-beginning: 53 (Single ride on a rental at Cades Cove in Great Smoky Mountains Park)
Beginning: 96
Current: 137
