Buying and first ride on a tandem 

We had had fancied having a go on a tandem for ages and kept looking at them, we have always enjoyed using our double kayak and wondered if a tandem would give the same enjoyment, but we kept saying we'll hire one first and try it, but could never find one to hire so when this one came up at a great price i just decided sod it, i'm just going to buy one!!
