Had a great time hanging out with my guys at Recycled Cycles. They are gonna keep an eye out for a cheap/decent tandem for me. (a la Salsa's) They had a barely-used "comfort" Diamondback tandem for $520, which was kinda frightening. Ewww.

They also have a new Raliegh Coupe (flat bar road) tandem. Disc brakes and other nice goodies. With my Team Survivor discount a new one would be $840. And a used custom Rodriguez with S+S couplers. That was a gorgeous, but weird bike. The stoker compartment was HUGE and the captain's was tiny. They said it had been made for a two-women couple. I know who wore the pants in that family...

Anyway, they were all ready to send me out on the Raleigh alone to get the feel of it, but I didn't have time today.

I love my LBS.
