I did say that I have only seen PHOTOS of TurnipSock's helmet and bike.

She discovered the Single DNA Helix in 1953, then it was taken by Wilkins without her knowledge or agreeement.

Mr Evans you even hit a policeman, you are a low cyclist.

I've seen Turnipsocks Helmet too. His is more aerodynamic than my husbands. It helps if you want to go really fast, especially around the track.

When and where did you see Turnipsock's bike helmet?

You can't go on a head on a tandem as you are on the same bike.

Tandem racing doesn't seem to be as popular as it used to be.

I remember Blue Peter, the popular kids TV program, did a thing about it as it was a good sport for blind people (not on the steering end). They interviewed a blind person and they had their helmet on backwards and nobody thought to mention it to them.

Does that tandem look like it going round the track in the wrong direction or is it just me?

When things are in 3D, is it always the same three dimensions?

I think the person on the front has let one go as the person on the back is trying to hold her breath.

Anyway, having your helmet on back to front sounds really painful.
