Too big?

Sexdam I guess. I wouldn't want to try asking for one in a bike shop though!

It's bad enough asking for nipples after you've bought all the spokes
to make up a wheel.

Depends...

if they're all in a line one behind the other, it's a tandem sextuplet.

If you ride one, it's called what you call it ;-)

If it's a Thorn it could Me 'n' You Five ('Come on Dad! Faster! Faster!').

If it's all in line few would argue against sextuplet tandem, likewise
sextuplet sociable for all abreast. But how about the other combos?
For example two rows of three?

Don't know, but I thought this needed another mention!

Flipping through the usual unfunnies, I came across this cycling must-see:

http://www.office-humour.co.uk/item.cfm?itm=1955

It may have been posted here before as I remember it from somewhere.
Worth another visit, though.

Got me onto my usual train of mad thoughts... how easy would it be to
manufacture an articulated tandem? Or failing that, a mechanism for
converting two bikes into one?

(I can't imagine that the second option would be easy, else we would have
seen more of it about.)

Not unless it's been moved. It's the Wiener Staatsoper (Vienna opera
house).

Easy - but you have to join the Dark Side.

Coupling bracket to join two Kettweisels together.
The front wheel of the second one is removed.
