Hi all, Hi all. haven't posted in eons and even then I think only once or twice. This is a question more or less to Carolyn (note her post below) but to all who drive both 4s and tandem. I have several tandem teams that go equally well as singles or in team pair but I especially enjoy the tandem. I'm currently working toward a three abreast team, but haven't done a team 4. I am curious as to the thoughts behind why you say the 4s are more stable than the tandem. Is it because of the group nature of the 4 or the fact that it takes the front two to agree before they could come around unexpectedly? I've seen photos of some "interesting" dilemmas of fours where the leaders and wheelers met each other coming and going through or around an obstacle. Looks like it would be a little more adrenalin pumping than straightening out 1 tandem leader easily enuf with a command. :)) Thanks for your thoughts in advance in case I ever work up to 4, which eventually I sure hope to do. At this time the thought is still enough to make me quake a bit!
