My bike with tandem at Cliffs of Moher146 viewsOn my excursion to the Cliffs of Moher, I saw Heike and Wolfgang's tandem, so I parked next to them. I didn't see the two of them until I got back to the B&B though.Jul 12, 2007

The infamous U-turn road149 viewsTaking U-turns in the opposite direction on narrow roads is more challenging than you might think! Add in foot straps and a bit of target fixation and you have all the ingredients for a fall. Luckily I landed correctly with my weight across my forearm, and only suffered minor bruises and scrapes. I got much better at U-turns later on, necessitated by the lack of street signs (and the possibility that the few that existed had turned around in the wind).Jul 12, 2007
