🎉💙💛 Two years of In-Tandem East Lothian! 💛💙🎉

We celebrated our 2nd birthday recently and to mark the occasion, 13 members enjoyed a lovely curry at the Gurkha Nepalese Restaurant in Musselburgh. 🍛😊

It’s hard to believe that two years have passed since we launched on 16 October 2024 at a Cycling UK event in Dunbar. We took along our three tandems for staff and visitors to try. We’ve come such a long way in two years and are still growing!

🚴‍♂️☀️ Saturday 11 October – group ride! ☀️🚴‍♀️

We had 14 riders on 7 tandems, plus 2 solo riders, enjoying a fantastic autumn day of cycling in East Lothian.

Two tandem crews tackled the 20-mile route from QMU along the coast to Longniddry and back via the Lagoons cycle path, with a welcome stop at Chapters Cafe Longniddry for a brew and some scrumptious sourdough toast! ☕🍞

Five tandem crews and two solo riders took on the 32-mile route to Humbie, via Cousland and Fala, with some challenging climbs. After a welcome lunch break at Humbie Hub, we returned through Pencaitland, Ormiston and Elphinstone.

We were delighted to welcome Beth on her first turn in the pilot saddle, who did brilliantly, and Natalie on a solo bike, who we hope will be piloting with us soon. 🚴‍♀️👏

We also enjoyed a visit from Nick, who joined us as a pilot and normally rides with Talking Tandems in Fife. It’s great to connect with enthusiastic riders from other tandem clubs!

Another wonderful day of cycling, friendship and fun! 💙💛

🎉 What a great day we had on Saturday at Musselburgh Communities Day! 💙💛

It was fantastic to meet with people who stopped by to find out more about the club, with lots of interest in trying tandem cycling with us.

We had one of our new Orbit tandems there for everyone to see – and what a lovely bike it is to ride! 🚴‍♀️🚴‍♂️ We’re looking forward to giving people the chance to try it, along with some of our other tandems, at an upcoming Come & Try event at Queen Margaret University. Watch this space! 😊

We also made some fantastic new connections with local groups and organisations. It was a wonderful celebration of community spirit, and we’re excited to see where these connections lead. 🤘

🚴‍♂️☀️ Last weekend’s group ride! ☀️🚴‍♀️

We had 10 riders on 5 tandems, plus 3 solo riders, enjoying a fantastic 32 miles through beautiful East Lothian in lovely autumn weather. 💙💛

Our route took us from QMU along the coast to Longniddry, then inland to Haddington for lunch at Rocksalt Café, with plenty of tempting traybakes! 🍰☕ We returned via the Pencaitland Railway Path and Carberry, before heading back to QMU.

We were delighted to welcome Daniel, Project Officer from SEStran, who joined us to see our new tandems in action. SEStran funded our new fleet, so it was great to have him along for a ride and see how much they’re being enjoyed! Daniel’s wife, Beth, also joined us. A keen photographer, Beth took some fantastic photos of the day, we've selected a few to share with you. 📸

Another brilliant day of cycling, friendship and fun! 🚴‍♀️💙💛

💙 From small beginnings, come great things! 💛

Back in summer 2024, Shona, our Club Chair, was making plans to set up In-Tandem East Lothian, with a little help from friends. We had plenty of enthusiasm but no tandems!

In October 2024, two years ago today, our first three tandems arrived on loan from Cycling UK East Lothian and Beyond Boundaries East Lothian - BBEL. We were so chuffed! Fast forward to today, and we now have 15 tandems, including seven brand-new bikes purchased with grant funding from Musselburgh Area Partnership and SEStran! 🎉

What a journey it's been! A huge thank you to everyone who has helped us grow and made it all possible. Here's to many more miles together! 🚴‍♂️💙
