We use a tandem when we tour together. We used to tow a trailer. But the Arkel TT-82's are so large that we can leave the trailer at home. That saves us 20 or so pounds that we don't have to pull up hills. We also use a seat back bag for things we use often. This is what the bags look like after a week long tour. They look stuffed, but there's still more room. The big blue bag is our Therm A Rest, Tandem LE model. Yea its big, but oh so cummfy after a good days ride.
The only draw back is theres always room for more stuff we really dont need
