Someone gave me this to get it out of his gargage. Needs a bit of a service and some sensible bars. It's huge!

I think that would terrify her even more!

New cables on order and I need to change the tyres then I have a mate signed up for the maiden voyage...I am kinda scared myself

I have to say I don't find being on the back of the tandem scary at all - much less scary than pillion on a motorbike or passenger in a car. Its rather nice just pedalling along looking at the view

Edit*

That appears to be a dawes and as such will have some value as secondhand tandems hold value well
