Tandem Side by Side Riding Schwinns with... Peddal Partner... Never seen this before

Surfing the internet for interseting bikes... I found this Peddal Partner contraption that joins two bikes together side by side. It attached to two vintage schwinn cruisers that are for sale in Michigan. I've see people weld two bikes together side by side but never a patented frame for connecting two bikes. Check it out... a BF close to Michigan should buy and report on how it rides.

Nice idea to keep in mind - Considering the cost of a tandem not such a bad idea...

If you're going to go that wide, have some fun.
Probably the only way I'd golf.

It rides like two of the worst Collegiates put together. The one in the rear has a FF Positron, the one in the front is a crappy later one, 3 speed.

BTW, I have a couple of old Collegiates I would never sell, they have their place, so don't get all uppity on me.

I could go to Grand rapids for them, but at $60, not worth the gas.

I wonder what would happen if you attached 4 riders abreast to one passenger, Roman style.

Who's up for some C&V chariot races?
