To get on a tandem bike, the stoker (the person riding in the back) should first mount the bike and put one foot on the ground to steady it, while the captain (the person in the front) then mounts and starts pedaling. Once the bike is moving, the stoker can then start to pedal as well. This information was sourced from the "Starting and Stopping" section of this webpage on Tandem Bicycle Touring (http://www.tandem-bicycle-touring.com...) and from the "How to Ride a Tandem Bike" section on the webpage of Liv Cycling (https://www.liv-cycling.com/global/ca...).
