I saw this flyingfurniture outfit at the Big Canberra Bike Ride today.
The rear one was a MR components & took a metal tow rod direct to it
steering.
The lead trike folded in half for going in the boot.
An articulated tandem that can be separated for transport,storage, o
just going off in different directions

was almost, but not quite, entirely unlike tea:
An articulated tandem that can be separated for transport,storage, or
just going off in different directions.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

I always thought married tandem riders fought more often

RecumbEnt, recumbEnt!
Don't know that Susy is that interested in Trikes.
Anyway,
Front trike was a Greenspeed GT3 folder ($2999)
Rear trike a MR Swift Aventure with full suspension.
Both trikes are fully operational unlinked.
The towing arm is three times the length of the towed trikes steerin
arms so the towing trike steers the towed trike.
Here's a pic.

Ha, ha, how original!
There are certain undeniable truths about recumbents.
1/ they don't climb hills as fast as an upright given the same rider.
2/ mirrors are necessary to see how much the roadies trying to catch u
to you are hurting.

Geez... Trikes are bad enough (one useless wheel), but this sound
like you've got _four_ useless wheels.

Regards,

Suzy (who's got a tandem on the to-do list, but it'll be a wedgie on
with just two wheels
