23rd November 2010 - .....on a bicycle made for 4!

In the words of the song I'm pretty sure that the 'bicycle made for two' is actually a tandem.

Now I've already seen a family of five on a motorbike, the kids when once would have been carried by the Mother, now were to old and required their own space. The bike was literally dragging along the ground under the combined weight of the grown up family.

Not to be out done on the way to work today I saw one of the old black utility bikes with three extra seats bolted to the crossbar and a large rack on the back, so potential passenger capacity was five. At least the motorbike rider had a 125cc engine, this poor bloke had a single speed bike designed in the 1940s!
