The plan today was to ride both bikes and most likely end up with the Burley, as long as we liked the fit and feel. We rode the Santana first and I thought it felt good, but my wife didn't like it all. I think it had more to do with it being our first ever ride on a tandem and being a little shaky than the actual bike, but I can't convince her of that. We were already scheduled to go see the Burley so we headed that way, called to let the seller know we were coming, and were told somemone else was coming, who ended up buying it .

So now we've got another we're looking at tomorrow, a mid 90's Burley Rumba with a Softride beam for the stoker. It's got an 8 speed STI drivetrain and looks to be in great shape and in the right size...and we'd save about $200 on it. We'll take a look at it tomorrow and see how it rides. My wife really likes the look of it, so we're on the right foot so far. If that doesn't work then I guess we'll just keep looking.
