    Things you just don't see every day

    Like the side hack. Or the jockey shift. Or a handicapped tag on a bike.

    "Pinky, are you thinking what I'm thinking?"
    "Well I think so Brain, but where are we gonna find a duck and a hose at this hour? Narf!"

      Still not real common, I'd wager.

            I used to ride with a guy that had only one leg. He had a handicapped sticker. He had brackets for his walking canes on the side where he had no leg (left).

            He would pull up to a stop, lean to the right and pusht the kickstand out with his cane.

            Another guy, here where I live, many years ago, had a mid 70's Gold Wing. He put a side 'car' on which was actually a floor. He would scoot his wheelchair up on the platform, lock it down, and drive the bike from the sidecar.

            Dunno whether he had a sticker or not...
