This is my all time favorite alt bike:D It used to make an appearance at the Second Saturday art festival, held monthly in Sacramento. This is one of my rides with this group:

Is that a wheeled platform pulled by two bikes, or a two-person-powered four-wheeled vehicle? It's hard to see in the video.

It's the latter. I think the owner welded two bikes to the platform in the middle.

Thanks:) I'll be keeping an eye out for this bike at this year's Amgen Tour of California. The last time I saw this bike was at the 2009 TOC Lifestyle Festival.
