A Trip on a Tandem, by 'The Skipper and his Boy' - Charles J Staniland, RI, member of the Cyclists' Touring Club, and son on a Beeston Humber tandem. The ride took place 'when the elections were on', so presumably July 1886.
'we went on to Wroxham, and finding that Host Jimpson, of the King's Head could accommodate us (a thing not always to be reckoned on in the season), we determined to stay for a couple of day's fishing . . . After dinner we went into the tap-room to have a look at the step-dancing, which the Skipper knew of old, but the boy had never seen. The North-folk men are great at step-dancing. It is curious to watch the impassiveness of faces and the utter stolidity of the upper part of the body and arms, and contrast them with the marvellously rapid patter and stamp of the feet on the floor. The Skipper has frequently seen a deputation sent in to the bar to the governor, Jimpson, asking him to bring in his fiddle - a boon which is seldom refused ; and then off they go, with a great consumption of beer in earthenware mugs.'
