2007 Rans Screamer TR
Recumbent Road Tandem bike |
Description: After 25 years we decided our marriage was strong enough to attempt a tandem - so we got a silver one.
The picture is me giving my mother a quick ride at their house in Michigan. The "TR" version breaks apart for easy transport and is well worth the extra cost.
I usually ride captain so it's my job to track mileage on the front tire. :)
