Recumbent built for two??

Anyone ever hear of a recumbent that is built for 2?? Honestly I have never seen or heard of one, but I see no reason why it wouldn't work.

There's a tons of them, some stoker first, etc. I believe RANS makes them in addition to Bike Friday among other companies.

I've seen a couple (or could have been the same one multiple times) on a popular riding trail in Atlanta. It was unusual enough looking that it caught my attention.

There are lots of recumbent tandems out there. Some are 2 wheeled, some are trikes.

Rans has the Screamer and one other really sweet tandem bent! A Colorado Company called, Longbikes, makes some really nice R-tandems. There are even "recumbent tandem trikes", (Greenspeed and Terratrike). Check out bentrideronline.com forums for tandems for more info, FYI.
