The Flying Cyclists popped up on Instagram when I started posting last year and I was intrigued. I love cycling and it looked like these guys were having some serious fun. So I dropped them a line to find out more. I love the fact that they have done so much travel on a tandem bicycle. My husband and I rode one once upon a time around the beautiful island of Rottnest, just off the coast of Perth, Western Australia. I believe he politely said he wouldn't ride tandem with me again-ha ha ha! … [Read more...]
