Tandem

Why Ride A Tandem?
Riding a normal, single-rider bicycle is a very rewarding experience, but a tandem bicycle adds a whole new dimension to cycling. Different tandemists choose the long bike for different reasons:

• A tandem allows two cyclists of differing strength and ability to ride together, pleasurably. The faster rider doesn't need to wait for the slower one; the slower rider doesn't need to struggle to try to keep up with the faster rider.
• A tandem turns the basically solitary, individualistic activity of cycling into a mutual experience that may be shared by a couple.
• A tandem allows handicapped people who couldn't otherwise ride a bicycle to share in the joy of cycling.
• A tandem can allow a parent to share cycling at an adult level of speed and distance with a child.
