tandemgeek--
oddly enough, my stoker--recall, she is NOT a racer, just a triathlete and runner ;-)) --is TOTALLY jacked at the idea of a tandem track bike. the one time she visited a velodrome, she watched in awe as a tandem sped around the track. i CAN'T wait for THAT one!!
thanks for the advice; it's gonna take some time to sift through it all, and we're just entering cross season... i have friends who race their tandem mountain bike, too. they're at chequamegon this weekend, and have won the overall at some big mountain bike races, beating all the singles. so with their input, and the input i plan to continue to receive here, too, i think we'll be just fine.
and again, i DO intend to contact some of you folks to put together my series for the radio show.
thanks for everything so far, and in just one day! great!
