Nice ride!
How is this going to fit on bus bike rack?

Nice! Seems like a high reach to the bars, like chopper style.
I may have to take the rack off. The rear is a 26" wheel, so the arm on the bus' bike rack should fit over it. Am I wrong about this, Duppie? Suggestions are welcome, as I have never done this before.

I am 6'4" and so the handlebar height is just right.

I think you should be able to take it to a bus turn-around (like the one just north of Clark and Devon) and experiment with the bus racks. You might even get the bus driver to offer help or suggestions (or they might just kibitz).
I spoke with someone riding a very similar tandem recumbent on Clybourn last year. So cool!

I rode all winter today was a pleasant and balmy ride considering this winter's tight grip.
First ride to work on non-studded tires this year.
Good thing you did not have to ride on Kinzie between Wells and the river! Apparently we are not in the "it will melt eventually" mode of clearing snow. I saw tire tracks in the bike lane, but most of us were in the car lane where it was comparatively safe.

Main roads were perfectly clear as well as the Elston bike lane heading out from Milwaukee. No reason not to ride today.
Hopefully the last snow to leave fresh tracks in. LFP was nice.
let it snow let it snow let it snow! Just enough snow lining the parked cars to remind me of days gone by. Had a nasty little headwind and was running really late so that wasn't what I wanted. Had one of my first experiences almost getting right hooked. no harm done, just glad I was paying attention.
