Double Dates - *New Member* Application Form

 The Dallas Area Tandem Enthusiasts

As our name suggests, we are all tandem enthusiasts. We are people who enjoy the companionship and sense of accomplishment we get on our bicycles built for two. We are very social people who are not above enjoying the attention our long bicycles receive. Some of us like to tour, some do it for fitness, some like to go fast, some like to sight see and all of us like to talk about our bikes.

We have been in existence since 1990 and have approximately 75 teams in our membership list. DOUBLE DATES publishes a monthly newsletter, listing area tandem and other cycling events. We host rallies, tours and social events.

Membership is $25.00 per year effective January 1st. If you join after July 1st, dues are $12.00. Memberships expire each year on December 31st. The renewal period starts after Thanksgiving and ends on January 31st. If this sounds like your type of organization join today. Then participate---- share your favorite route with other members.
