Haul our tandem inside 1997 Accord Station Wagon (last of its type in the US).
For long hauls take wheels off tandem and remove pedals + pilot seatpost/stokerbar combo.
Can also haul single bike along with tandem inside the wagon with all our other stuff with hatch closed.
For short trips load tandem in (with 2nd row seats folded) and let front wheel hang partially outiside of hatch.
Pad front wheel with piece of old carpet, close hatch as far as possible with bungee cord.
Works fine.
Get mid-30s mpg on the highway on cruise control.
Used to haul partially disassemebled tandem inside a Honda Accord Hatchback.
Where there's a will, there's a way!
Pedal on!
