VR82
The base version of the ATP tandem.
An ATP original patent, the Independent Pedaling System allows for the stoker and the captain to pedal at different intervals. IPS was an extra cost option for the front crankset, and made stopping and starting the bike easier. Click the link to read more on the sytem and the patent.

Corwin Croy comments (April 29, 2020): "Found this R82, #165, recently in Celina, Ohio. It was bought in 2001 at Valley Bikes, in Indiana. The business is no more. We brought it home to Bluffton, Ohio. My wife and I took it out for a couple of miles after I replaced the stoker seat with one we had from a Volae. Then, I added a seat from a Burley I have been parting out to keep 3 other Burley recumbents on the road and another one locked onto a 'Cyclops'."
