You could enter a SS tandem to SSUK but why would you want to :?

DaveDH and Dr Dave who you've met once have offroaded a tandem, it didn't end well

Worst bit would be tight corners and drop offs, all the other bits would be horrible too :roll:

Just wonderin :roll: they look like fun s'all

Biggest issue with an off road tandem is trust, the Stoker has to trust the Captain. Real backseat driver issues !!!

DaveDH might be a stunning bike handler but would you want him driving as you piled down a hill, I sure as hell wouldn't :shock:

I might trust you Kaiser as your not as mad, I'm more of a stoker, I dont want to be blamed for a crash, but theres also the gayer slagging to take into account.

Why wouldn't you trust little ol' me on a tandem?
I'll happily pilot you round ssuk on one, but I'm thinking Laggan Black to get some practice first.
V- at least you'll get a better view as stoker than most....

Been sat in a van for too long, corroded to hell. Pin kept popping out from master cylinder before that too so not worth rebuilding...
