I'm sure I've seen shorter tandems.


Have a look at the wheels. Isn't that rather a lot of spokes ?? You'll
need to get to the large preview at (I hope) http://tinyurl.com/67bsg

Aahhhh yes I see..... The Twist Lowrider is just a bit over the top but
I _do_ like the uncluttered look of the Chopper.

YIKES - how do you swing a spoke key. ...:-( screwdriver I s'pose. How about
a nice pair laced up in say for example a 36 cross pattern...:-) At this late
stage I don't think I'll break with tradition, I'll stick with 36 spokes
laced 4 cross on 700c rims as per the Old Grey Bike.

I'm all-for anything that gets yuppies out of their beemers,
audi's, mercs, toorak tractors, etc.. if only for 30mins on
a warm weekend.

Having said that.. I MUST have one :-)

Fo shizzle, cfsmtbizzle, ma nizzle!
Ooops, umm, I mean, Fo shizzle, cfsmtbizzle, ma sizzle!
Dat bikeezy porneezy sho nuffeezy make mezeey wish my ass jus rizzey
bikeezy fo ev'reezzy. Wordizzle, sizzle, cfwmb-dizzle!

<--- begin old fogey commuter cyclist voice --->
Or something like that. I really can't keep up with all the
"crack-a-lackin' " stuff that young folks these days use in their
everyday speech. I mean, "Noop Snoggy Dog-izzle" - is that some kind of
Labrador dog (or should that be "dawg") breed?
[Sigh]
Why can't we just ride our bicycles with reference to a decent British
popular culture band like "Queen"?
[Sighs again]
I guess these days, it will be "Dawg, ma ass be ride-izzle ma
bicycl-izzle", perhaps?

Best regards,

Ok, so this is very silly... fo shizzy!

I think the most appropriate setup would be with
a coaster brake. Old Skool!

Only problem would be getting up enough speed
on one of those to lay down a monster skid! :)
