I have a mini-van with individual seats (it's a Chevy Venture and they call it modular seating). By removing the middle seat in the second row and both of the third row seats, I can fit my tandem completely inside and still have seating for 4. -Don |

I could fit our tandem in our Subaru Legacy, but that's with the passenger seat crunched forward -- in other words, I couldn't take the other rider with me, only the bike. We bit the bullet and bought a rack to fit on the top. Just yesterday I bought another set for the second tandem -- now we can go places as a family without only having to leave from the front door. -- Warm Regards, Claire Petersky Please replace earthlink for mouse-potato and .net for .com Home of the meditative cyclist: [Only registered and activated users can see links. ] See the books I've set free at: [Only registered and activated users can see links. ] |
