I don't know about over your way, but we do have a husband/wife on a tandem in the club.

But I learned about a week ago that for a while tandems were not allowed to race in our club... I think the UCI regs were used as a reason to stop tandems from racing and I'm not sure of the history. However, they are allowed to race again... I think there is just the husband wife, and also two brothers that race sometimes on a tandem.

Certainly in nationals and internationals, tandems have their own category.

As for mixed teams, you would have to check - I'm not sure. But see how your local club feels.

In our local TTs, the tandem races, but always in the results (TTs or RRs) they are listed as the *****(their name) Tandem with their time beside, because the nature of a tandem will of course give different results (sometimes more favourable, sometimes less, depending on the course) to a single rider/bike.
