The crazy cart loading bikes of Asia
<< Back
Got ute? Oct 19, 2009 at 10:39
Anyone who has spent even a little bit of time traveling through Asia would be well accustomed to the confronting scene of a small moped weaving down a skinny somewhat chaotic road with a massively disproportionate load on its back. It's not uncommon to see entire families – pets included – happily dinking helmet-less through traffic anarchy. It's scary enough to ride a bike through weaving traffic let alone carting those kind of loads. My hat's off to them all.

Courtesy of the bazillion tentacles of the Google monster, pictured to the right of this post are a collection of images of some super ambitious load carting mopeds.

Gold. It looks like it would take them twice as long to balance and tie the load down than to make 2 trips. Geniusness.
