If I'm thinking of the right person (I think it was you, BAH) the more appropriate question would be "How do you transport your other bikes on that vehicle?"

I thought that I remembered seeing one of your other xtracycles with a mountain bike on it? The reason it sticks in my head is that I thought it both sad and funny that people were giving you a rash for riding a bike to a bike ride. I thought that it looked way cool. Anyway, I may be confused as to who it was.

Very nice looking tandem BTW.

BAH,
Beautiful Tandem. What is it? Who made the bike? I know you added the extracycle but I could not find the write-up.
Thanks,
Tony

Yep, that was me, I thought you were saying I should figure out how to transport all bikes on this one :)

Tony - It's the electra swing :)

Sure Tony! This am I took Sara into work, dropped her off and then ran some errands. Many many compliments- many asking for a ride haha

Here's a shot when we aren't going out to cruise on the boards.

BAH, Not to worry, I'm sure if we could see the facial intent, it would not be sarcastic. Thats the problem with emails. Me, I never seen a bike I didn't like. Some more than others. Yours is way cool. And the night view is way visible and really safe. Hurry up and put a picture of you and your stoker in the "Pictures Of Happy Tandem Couples" so we can see it in action.

Extremely cool set of bikes. I use the same type of trailer to haul my 13' Flevo back to back tandem.
