Up to 15 couples will spend the morning of 14th February 2010 on bicycles built for two supplied by the Tandem Experience before lunching at the Meadow Inn, Ironbridge. Full training will be given.

Tandems are not difficult to ride and within an hour most couples are really confident on the unfamiliar machines. The emphasis on the 14th February will be to have fun. The tandem session will cost £15 per head and will be free if you already own a tandem. The cost of the meal is not included. Booking is required.

The idea occurred to Peter Bird of the Tandem Experience when he heard the old song “Daisy Daisy” playing on the radio. The Tandem Experience organises tandem tours throughout the year but this is the first time they’ve really emphasised the romantic potential of a tandem ride.

Peter Bird said

"The secret to tandem riding is trust, communication and co-operation. That’s why we use them for corporate team building events but it makes them even more suitable for romance and companionship."

"On our regular Wine Tours we spend all day and ride about 30 miles. We don’t think most people will want a full day ride on Valentines Day so this ride will just be for a couple of hours before having lunch."

“We expect this to be a really popular way to celebrate the 14th of February so book as soon as you can to avoid disappointment. Call us on 0845 60 66 456 or e-mail This e-mail address is being protected from spam bots, you need JavaScript enabled to view it ”
