The tandem is 8\u2019 long so needed to have a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.canvasspecialty.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">local canvas company<\/a> make a custom cover to keep the dirt off when we travel. It turned out he only lived a mile from our home so he dropped over to measure and then deliver the beautiful cover.<\/p>\n<p>I will provide our blog with a option to read in the order of our travels as well as in standard blog format with latest news on top.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We had a warm spell to get all packed and ready to go.
