Loan of a Tandem and a Turbo Trainer?

cdaly_

My son and I are planning a fund raising 300km 'virtual' cycle 'across Lesotho'. The virtual cycle will take place on the seafront at Clontarf using stationary bicycles on 24-25th September. We are looking to borrow a couple of turbo trainers (and trainer tyres) and a tandem. The plan is to cycle this route mapmyride over two days using a tandem and another bike mounted on turbo trainers. We'll be collecting along the seafront on the day.

So, has anybody got a turbo trainer or a tandem they would be willing to lend for the weekend for a good cause?

Good morning Mr Daly. I have an Elite Volare mag turbo trainer you can borrow - nothing fancy but it does the job! I don't have a training tyre but I do have a worn Conti Ultra Sport (25) which you are welcome to borrow too.

Can't help you with a tandem I'm afraid!!

Cool, Thanks RT. Will be in touch by PM...

BTW, forgot to say. I'm based in Dublin Northside and the cycle will be on the seafront in Clontarf, Dublin 3.

I'm in Drogheda.
I have a Tacx Turbo trainer, that you are welcome to borrow. It's a fairly basic one, but in excellent condition.
I don't have a trainer tyre, but I have the wheel and tyre, that I use, which you can also borrow.
No tandem, I'm afraid.
If you don't get, what you need closer to home, give me a shout.

Might be worth giving the bike rental place in Phoenix Park a shout for the tandem if you don't get any joy.

Woo! Nice one Paul. Thanks very much...

Thanks Eamonnator. I may I have a second turbo now closer to home so I don't think I'll need yours. I'll confirm shortly...
