Tandem Riding Report June 14. Yellow Mosquito Eater was needed to eliminate mosquitoes at Sacajawea Park where we camped out at the Bluegrass Festival held there. We spent most of the time riding the tandem back and forth between Sacajawea and Hanford logging 100 miles and adding 14 more on my road bike. Great news arrived on Friday when we learned the new Co motion Periscope Torpedo was in the paint shop getting its green applied. Charlie promptly named it GrePedo (green torpedo) and Nan Little suggested it be called Rappedoe. I think we could call it Repeato for my return to RAGBRAI and ThreePeto if I should return a third time to ride the famous bicycle tour across Iowa. Note on spelling so we don't get any "pee" comments from Michael Fahning about this tandem bike.We will see what takes. TWO WEEKS seems so long! But the paint has to dry before I can sit on it!!! Short rides this week and then next weekend a big one planned of 65 miles through the rolling wheat fields of eastern Oregon.
