I am NOT a fan of our tandem, but that is in large part due to the view. I am nearly a full foot shorter than my husband and the rear cockpit is pretty short, so I end up with my nose in the small of his back. I cannot get comfortable on the thing and I can't see much at all...nothing at all in front of us. I end up sore all over from having to tilt my head back to keep my forehead off his back (I'm short, but long-torsoed). And I loathe having to give up control.

But we have our Co-Motion Perioscope Torpedo that we bought with our son in mind. He LOVES being on the back of that thing with his dad. The two of them have a blast "dropping mom." It's OK that I don't like it. We didn't really purchase it for me. DS just turned 11 and we've had the bike for about a year and a half. We figure that he'll get good use out of it for a few more years, until he can fit a solo road bike and drop his old parents.
