I'm kinda in the same boat, I've always wanted a tandem but somehow I never seem to have a Stoker around
At a shop I used work at they had this goofy little indoor test track. I used hope on one of the tandems when it dead and cruise the track and sometimes all of us were simply riding around the store, an old staples, I got pretty good at handling the tandem in tight quarters.
