Inspired by Bicycle Touring Pro, Darren Allf and his RU-vid videos. My Wife agreed to a five day Bicycle Tour, down to the South Coast of England, taking in the New Forest and a couple of Ferry Crossings. Just as long as we didn't camp and could stay in an Airbnb. This is the first day of the trip from Glastonbury to Milton Abbas, 80km and 1000m of climbing. Can we do it? Her longest ride on the Tandem so far is 80km, which she has only done on two other occasions, and never on back to back days!

Hi, Darren, Debbie - it was good to see that we got a walk-on part in your excellent video ! We've just returned from our short tour of South Dorset on our electric assist tandem - and I have to say, we had a fantastic time and sailed up the hills even fully laden - didn't envy you there ! Chapeaux to you both - and I hope you enjoyed the rest of your tour. Hang in there, Debbie - it does get easier !

I am excited for you all to see the series of five videos coming out this week. We had a great week, so I hope it comes across. Deb likens her part to Wilson from Home Improvement, she’s there, but you don’t see her, or maybe you will 😜

Lovely to see my Mum (Pete's Granny) on the Vlog...in the background at the Thyme after Time cafe where we met you at lunch! Great vlog showing a different side to cycling...the tandem in one of the most beautiful counties, Dorset.

Hello, I'm a new friend here. Greeting from Singapore. I enjoyed your cycling trip and during the 81.9km journey, I could see the green trees and the fields. Great shared journey. Happy cycling and stay safe.

Top vlog Darren. Hats off to Deb for doing those miles with I guess not many previous miles done and for saying yes to it in the first place!

Great video Darren, don't think I can wait until 5pm tomorrow for the next instalment 😂 it's like when you find a good series on TV, the episode ends and you realise you have to wait a whole week for the next one 😭 you'll have to bring Deb and the tandem on our Sunday rides, she got some great footage on the back as she doesn't have to worry about steering 👍

Great stuff, like yerself I have a non cycling wife and just asked her if she’d go touring with me on a tandem, she said yes. Boom 👍

The lack of food was a tragic scene in an otherwise great vlog!

Great ride with all that weight Darren. Shame we didn’t get to see the wife on the vlog though? 😊

It looked hard work with that heavy tandem Darren. I am sure that Debbie had her feet on the handlebars at one point, of course I could have been mistaken 😊. Milton Abbas looks familiar from one of your earlier vlogs. You chose the right week for it as the weather is now on the turn, although Wednesday might be good. Still enjoyed the video Darren but you will have to show your missus before the end. Look forward to the next one.

Hey! Fellow tandem cyclists! My stoker wishes to remain a stoker, so we are sticking to our tandem for now. I couldn't catch you when you said which tandem you have. Which tandem bike do you have? And how do you like it?
