Training for both captains and stokers ensure safety and fun on a tandem bike.

InTandem's History
InTandem is the legacy of Artie Elefant who lost most of his vision due to retinitis pigmentosa at the age of 47. Adapting to a new lifestyle was necessary, but Artie was not prepared to give up on biking and running. Artie joined an adaptive sports organization, where he started their first tandem cycling program.
​
When the program came to an end, Artie was determined to fill the void for a disabled community eagerly waiting to get out and ride again. As a result, in 2013, InTandem was born!
