I went for my pilates review today and whilst waiting I heard one of the receptionists talking about her tandem bike ride along the Great Ocean Road. Wow!! Anyway when I came out to pay I got to speak with her. She is a real bike rider but loved the tandem with her husband as she could be with him instead of trying to always catch up to him. (Typical male always trying to outdo the female) Having done the GOR by car I thought of all the slopes. She told me that walking the GOR is done and actually a man from Qld was doing the group walk whilst they were riding. Food for thought. "When the student is ready the teacher appears" I reckon I could handle sore feet as opposed to a sore butt. XLeonie
