Description
An abandoned Schwinn tandem bicycle waiting for its next ride, rests in a lavender flower field on a cloudy day. A tandem bike (a bicycle built for two), is the most efficient family bicycle, bar none. Two adults can go faster than one adult on a solo bike because, while you’re doubling the power, weight isn’t quite doubled (one tandem is lighter than two solos), and wind resistance stays almost the same. This gives the tandem a big speed advantage when you’re going downhill, on the flat, or into a headwind. Even with an adult and a child on a tandem, speed is barely less than an adult cycling alone. So what do you say, wanna go riding with me?
