Tandem

After deciding not to go the Richtjemuseum, I thought it'd be fun to rent a tandem bike for Kaley and I. We located a bike rental place. The guy said, "Impossible in Eindhoven."

Kaley and I took off on a bike. She sat on the back. After a while her legs got stiff so we tried re-adjusting.

I said, "You know what, we're American, let's figure this out." That's right, we're freaking American, from freaking Texas.

It dawned on me that I could sit on the back and pedal and have Kaley sit on the front. It worked. She had her legs up on the front and was having trouble positioning them. I said, "Try pedaling on my feet". That worked. We were tandem. Kaley said, "We are haulin' in Holland and my legs aren't stiff anymore." I said, "Dang right, let's catch that dude on the mountain bike."
