Left the Cotton Patch at dusk and got to Pat's at dark.....another fun ride on the beastly bike. Top speed on the speedo was 49.6 mph, the reading on my GPS had 49.3 mph. So less than 1 mph under 50 mph.....that's moooovin !

Nice vids...
Get yourself a Radbot 1000 taillight flasher.
Them .99 eBay specials are junk...lol (I got 2)
I'll bet the added wheelbase of your tandem allows better high speed stability?
