November 1992's Bicycling magazine has an article on page 72
about the Uncle Fester they rate it very highly due to it's
lateral stifness and on/off road capability.  They also say the
suggested retail is $2,200.  You can't beat the name.

	Another brand you should check out is called the Burrly tandem
I have ridden one of these before with a blind 10 year old.  (I was 
obviously the captin)  His legs were not long enough so we got a 
special adapter from Burrly that puts another crank set on the seat 
tube of the stoker.  Quite an ingenious set up it lets small children
ride with you.  I don't know where they are distributed from, but 
the bike shop I used to work at carried them.  Give them a call at
(617)244-1040voice and ask who to get in touch with.  Tell them Sanford
sent you.
Good Luck.
