If you've been tandemming exclusively for a week, you might find that a lightly loaded solo gets very wobbly until you stop overcompensating  :-[

And indicating whilst steering is boring. Not only that, you can't do jazz hands to stop drivers coming too close when you have to steer. :(

And solos are slow, too. ;)

I've just been smiling at the fact we kept with the racing boys over the hills towards Malton :) :) :)

There's never a bottom to fondle when you're on a solo.  :(

Or not without someone calling the police, anyway, and that makes you late for work.

No one to massage your back (or fondle your bottom), I find... :( :( :(
