tandem tubbies sign in

hi all you team wellspring members! We are the Tandem Tubbies - Gerry and Shirley Malnis from Vernon, B.C. We are not 80(although we feel like 80 when we get off the bike sometimes), but we may well be the oldest members of the team! The only person on the team we know is Richard (we also know Jeffery in Rwanda) but we are looking forward to meeting you in 6 weeks! We did not know Ben but had the privilege of working on his boathouse last November on a trip to Rwanda. All we know that if he was a friend of Jeff and Richard's he was a quality guy and we are pleased to suffer 200miles to remember his life and for such a great cause as another school block at Wellspring Academy! Ta ta for now!

Oh Tandem Tubbies: What is the secret of your brilliance? Could I borrow some Oxygen from you after we hit the 50 mile mark?

Welcome Gerry and Shirley! Nice to unofficially meet you. I've been wondering who these riding machines were on the bikejournal website that seem to constantly 600 miles ahead of me! Ride on! We'll meet you in Seattle in a few weeks!

riding machines we are not! Just old guys who have no illusions about what we have signed on for and hope to still be alive at the end of it all!
