Back in my days as a Penniless Student Oaf, the then-Editor of the college
paper was frequently to be observed riding solo around South Kensington on a
tandem.  At least once I saw him doing so from the stoker's position too,
though /that/ didn't look terribly controllable.

The one time I tried it I got terrible wheelspin trying to climb a short
sharp incline in the wet.
