Our 1987? Burley Duet. We made a post late last year on Tandem@Hobbes asking if anyone had a cheap tandem fixer-upper, since we were just looking to get into the hobby and didn’t know how we’d like it. An older couple replied and gave us one for free—AND threw in another Burley tandem for good measure (which we gave to some friends)! We were gobsmacked.

I fixed the bike up, and we love it and ride it often. We’re set to go on our first ride with the couple who gave it to us later this month (since corona got in the way).

The whole story probably deserves its own post. It was crazy in the best way.
