Bikes: 1984 Cannondale ST; 1975 Raleigh Grand Prix; mystery Nashbar tandem MTB; 1991 Paramount Series 20 PDG (in bits); 1984 Raleigh Record (in smaller bits, needs dropout repair); 1985 Raleigh Alyeska (wrecked, needs downtube repair)

I just found this a couple days ago. Completely different from a normal bike, but looks pretty handy for city use. Can attach a second child seat as an extra option, apparently: http://cargocycling.org/2009/08/taga...e-changer.html

I like the kidback tandem with baby seat! I was also eying the Onderwater, which was linked from the same page as the Taga convertible trike/stroller thing. Come to think of it, the tandem-with-baby-seat routine could be done with a normal tandem in Sheldon Brown style ... hm.....

If it's paranoia, I share it. Cars don't like sharing the road, and the concept of having bicycle trails everywhere is a long way off, so to me it's an important consideration!
