grin Hi everyone, as the title suggests not quite a new topic more like a differant slant
on an old topic.
Whilst trawling the internet looking for things Tandem oriented (Wikipedia)I came across an
artical about names for the two positions on the tandem.
The front rider being Captain steersman or pilot, and for the rear rider Stoker, navigator or Rear Admiral.
So whilst talking to Stokes the other day I told her about these other names,
To which the reply was That means a Rear Admiral outranks a mere Captain"
DAM, me and my big mouth. “ Yes” was the wimpish reply.
But we all knew the one on the rear is really incharge, aren’t they. wink

Stokes said I could be Captain:
Now Stokes has changed her mind I can’t be Captain

Pedlar - I take it Stokes has allowed you back on the tandems… so do you need to change your signature?
