Read and follow the component manufacturers warnings and instructions. WARNING Using your bicycle improperly is hazardous. WARN001 3 TANDEM RIDING CAPTAIN (Matt) STOKER (Lauren) A ROAD TANDEM Figure 1 - Captain and Stoker on a Road Tandem Tandems are fun, and with two engines for the same frontal area, they’re considerably faster than single bikes. Tandem teams learn to ride together well, to communicate without words, and to anticipate each other’s desires. Tandeming is a great way to enjoy cycling with another person. Tandems are serious business too. One rider (THE CAPTAIN) is entirely responsible for the well-being of the other rider (THE STOKER). The bike is bigger, heavier, and less forgiving of sloppy riding habits. A tandem captain can’t be as spontaneous as a rider on a single, nor can the captain make the same kinds of last-minute recoveries from errors in judgment. Look farther ahead, plan farther ahead. Also, be aware that tandems attract attention. People will stare, wave, shout. Passing cars, temporarily distracted, will often swerve in or out. The presence of a tandem can make people act differently on the road. A bell or air horn can be very handy in traffic. 4 116831.PDF WARNING TANDEMS ARE BIGGER, HEAVIER, AND LESS MANEUVERABLE THAN SINGLE RIDER BIKES. • Ride very cautiously as your team climbs the tandem learning curve. • More time is needed to react and avoid ride hazards. • Always think further ahead. Allow more time. Learn to anticipate hazards. Tandem riding, like any bicycle riding carries a risk of serious injury, paralysis or death. WARN002 The Captain’s Responsibility The captain’s primary job is to make the stoker happy. With an unhappy stoker, the captain won’t have a riding partner! So you must reassure your partner with careful, methodical riding habits. Anticipate maneuvers, beginning them far in advance. Be alert to shifting needs. A too-fast or too-slow cadence is doubly annoying to the stoker because she/he can’t fix it. Watch the road or trail ahead, and make your steering and braking corrections smoothly. Ride slightly farther from the curb, or from parked cars, than you would on a single bike. Your stoker doesn’t want to feel hemmed in. If you ride too far to the right, you may find your stoker leaning to the left, trying to veer away from the curb. When you conduct a maneuver, such as merging across traffic to make a left turn or steering around a pothole, make your decision early. Signal your intentions clearly, proceed on a straight path, and complete the maneuver. A decisive captain will ride smoother, and that will make the stoker happier. Most new tandemists find captaining exhausting, and they get sore shoulder muscles from being tense. This too will pass. As you become accustomed to the requirements of captaining a tandem, you’ll develop a light touch. Don’t hot dog. If your stoker is nervous, ride slowly. In time, the stoker may become more confident and ask for more speed. But if she/he wants to go slow, go slow! The more conservative voice must prevail. That’s only fair. Remember, you’re the chauffeur, not the stunt pilot. 5 The Stoker : The Best Seat in The House The back seat on a tandem is the fun seat. You have this person in front of you who’s giving all his/her attention to making you feel comfortable. The view is terrific out to the sides, just like on a train ride. The view to the front may be a bit bland, but the captain’s jersey pockets are a great place to put your binoculars, camera, radio, fruit bars, and other hedonistic goodies. Your obligations are few: Pedal—at an agreed-upon effort level. Pedal smoothly, so your pedaling doesn’t make your upper body move around. Don’t shift your upper body weight abruptly. (Your weight shift can inadvertently steer the bike, and force the captain to fight you.) Hold your head high and enjoy the scenery. Tell your captain what she/he is missing while she/he keeps eyes glued to the road for potholes. Many tandem teams delegate hand turning signals to the stoker. This not only encourages communication between

    SHOOTING STAR: A BIOGRAPHY OF A BICYCLE Geoff Mentzer 2 SHOOTING STAR: A BIOGRAPHY OF A BICYCLE Copyright © 2020 by Geoff Mentzer All rights reserved. 3 In a scientific study of various living species and machines, the most efficient at locomotion – that is, the least amount of energy expended to move a kilometre – was found to be a man on a bicycle. –SS Wilson, Scientific American, March 1973, Volume 228, Issue 3, 90 The Dandy Horse of 1818, said to be the first velocipede man-motor carriage. Sharp, Bicycles & Tricycles: An Elementary Treatise On Their Design And Construction, Longmans, Green, and Co, London, New York and Bombay, 1896, 147 4 INTRODUCTION AND ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS What began as a brief biograph of the author's forebear Walter William Curties soon doubled into a study of two men, and expanded into an account of early bicycle – and a little motoring – history in New Zealand. Curties is mostly invisible to history, while Frederick Nelson Adams – who rose to national pre-eminence in motoring circles – by his reticence and reluctance for public exposure is also largely overlooked. Pioneering New Zealand cycling and motoring history – commercial, industrial and social – have been variously covered elsewhere, in cursory to comprehensive chronicles. Sadly, factual errors that persist are proof of copy and paste research. As examples, neither Nicky Oates nor Frederick Adams' brother Harry was the first person convicted in New Zealand for a motoring offence, nor was the world's first bicycle brass band formed in New Zealand. It must be said, however, that today we have one great advantage, ie Papers Past, that progeny of the Turnbull Library in Wellington.
