We rode over multiple 10K+ foot passes with it. You definitely feel the weight on the climbs, but it is really steady on the fast descents.

Two years later, she and I used the BOB with our tandem when we rode from Seattle to Rehobeth Beach, Delaware. For two riders on a long tour, it is a good way to carry your gear (assuming you are camping).
I can understand how good a tandem and trailer can carry the needs for two people. I say that not having used for camp touring either of two tandems we have ridden.
