Depending on the composition of the group (age, physical fitness, cycling skills) and the set goals (resting in nature, passing near historical landmarks), we can choose cycling routes in our country that vary in length and difficulty. Our country is favored in this respect \u2013 there is something for everyone. On our native roads, we can get away with the most diverse types of bicycles - from expensive professional models and high-passable mountain runners to two-wheelers for a few hundred BGN, used to get to work or to take a short walk on the weekend. Double wheels or so-called "tandems" are not among the most common animals in this velo fauna.<\/p>\n

For those unfamiliar - let's briefly explain what a tandem is. It is a bicycle with two tires, but also with two seats located (unlike rickshaws, for example) one behind the other. The front rider is responsible for steering, while the co-driver has support functions, mostly related to pedaling and in some cases braking or balancing. The first double wheels were patented in England in 1880. Models with two seats side by side were known as sociable or \u201cDaisy Bells\u201d. "Daisy Bell (Bicycle Built for Two)" is the title of the 1892 popular song by British songwriter Harry Dacre.<\/p>\n
