ABSTRACT:
An improved apparatus for linking two or more bicycles together in tandem by means of a light-weight tubular member, wherein said member is attached a leading bicycle in a location near or on the seat and to the head tube of the trailing bicycle by a quick-release fastener. A separation means insures that the apparatus will automatically separate from the trailing bicycle in the event of excessive force being applied. An alignment means is provided to cause the trailing bicycle to track in substantial alignment with the leading bicycle. Cushioning material is provided on each coupling means to absorb shock and to minimize abrasive wear and to prevent marring of the respective bicycles.
