image captionTiffany Thurley: "I went to France for a weekend in May with three of my best friends to celebrate one of their birthdays. We had the most amazing time with incredible weather. One of the highlights was cycling on a four-seater bike along the beach in Dunkirk. A stranger pushed us to help us on our way. It was so much fun and I think having a bike where four of you can cycle together is a great idea!"
