[drivingpairs] Re: tandem vehicle

Sterling -
Please send me the particulars on your Road Cart - wheel size and shaft
length - along with anything you would do differently on a second cart.  I'm
confident the cart would work well for singles in the size range I have
(14.0-15.0) but the seat height with the tandem is still bothering me a bit.
How big is the wedge you have?  Send any and all pics PLEASE!!!

Do you use the cart for CDEs with your tandem?

As I can't stand to stay clean or dressed up for very long I'm not a big
pleasure show person - CDEs are where it's at for me!   My horses are
Morgans of the old type so fancy (formal) isn't for us (thankfully!).  And,
I'm not looking to campaign across the country so totally correct isn't an
issue either.  I want to play around the farm, go out a few times a year and
basically just have fun.

Finally, you have to tell me what B-i-H stands for...I'm thinking it's not
exactly the name of a carriage maker.....  :)

Thanx again - - all the help and info is greatly appreciated!!
