I've seen that type of tandem once. I thought it was a brilliant design--the person in the rear can look ahead to see scenery not just the back of the one in the front. I wonder how they handle, though?

As for kilts.....I once worked for a company with a open dress code. Many worked in shorts and one guy worked in shorts year round (high internal core temp). We were bought by a large multi-national who decided to impose a dress code and outlawed shorts. What they didn't count on was that the guy owned a full dress kilt. He worked in the kilt for quite a while--after all, it met the dress code
