Lizzie Eastham and Sam Rickard present Studio 1 - Vision Australia Radio’s weekly look at life from a low vision and blind point of view.

On this week’s show

Tandem Cycling

We don bicycle helmets and look at one of the most recognisable of Blind Sports, Tandem Cycling.  Lizzie interviews Lily Holloway and Jacqueline Gaffey (her competitors at the National Championships) Current National Champion Stephen Kemp and former Australian Paralympic Cycling Coach Kevin McIntosh (who has promising news about Tandem Cycling in Australia)  Meanwhile Sam stays in the safety of a nearby café and wonders whether to have the Jam Donut or the Chocolate Mud Cake with his Flat White.

Studio 1 welcomes any input from our listeners. If you have any experience or thoughts about issues covered in this episode or believe there is something we should be talking about.
