Daniel and CSW Lorraine have logged a lot of miles on this tandem bike over the years. It sure is fun to see them pedalling all over town.
From Google: Tandem bikes require a unique level of coordination, communication, and trust between the riders. The length of the bike makes it less maneuverable, and both the "captain" (front rider) and the "stoker" (rear rider) must adapt to the unique physics and the synchronized effort involved in steering, pedaling, and braking. 🚲 🏆 🚲
