Cali guys should chime in

First double was SoCal
Grand Tour started ca. 1960
Second was Hemet
Third Davis
A pal of mine has ridden over 200 doubles!
Smead here and Pete B have done many
fixed doubles and tandem doubles—as have I
Alas “only” 37
If you hydrate and eat, and can finish 100
strong— you can ride a double. Just find
a rider or group that is near your level.
AND
go easy for first 50-70 miles, do NOT hammer
or get carried away. Prepare for wild mood swings, and
above all enjoy your self!
No flats no crashes is a perfect ride
But prepare for both!
Enjoy
