Maar als je ook in de toekomst samen wilt fietsen, moet je een systeem bedenken waarin jij niet altijd gefrustreerd bent en je partner niet altijd total loss is. De beste manier om dit te bereiken is door je verwachtingen voor de rit aan te passen en je alleen te focussen op het plezier van samen op pad zijn.
