Description
I bought a 2 stroke engine on Ebay, and out it on my tandem bicycle to get me and my girlfriend around a huge weeklong art festival.
I have been using a CatEye computer to track mileage. With me, and my girlfriend on it riding across the desert sand on short trips, we get about 150 mpg. With just me, on city streets, I get about 190 mpg. If I were able to ride on flat streets for 220 miles, I'm sure it would get 200mpg.
Modifications
60psi tires.
Planned Modifications
Maybe some gears, and a pull starter.
 

 
Common topics of discusion include: gas mileage, fuel economy, best gas mileage car, MPG, miles per gallon, acetone, increase gas mileage
