Most ridiculous thing I've EVER seen

[Arch]

Just to qualify, the seat in front of the saddle was NOT attached to anything....

Not ideal.

But still not the most ridiculous thing I've ever seen....

Frankly, pootling round Centre Parcs, it doesn't matter. The Dutch manage with kids (and adults) sitting on any old bit of the bike, without dying en masse.

I happily cycle around the village with the girl sitting in the U of my chopper handlebars while the lad sits on the seat.

Maybe we should break out the car to get down to the allotment instead, then we could all wear seat-belts and be safely cocooned.

London to southend last year guy with what like a large yellow, rugged plastic fish crate (the type they have at the markets ) attached somehow to the front of his bike with dog perched in it.

Second most ridiculous thing on the same ride 9 or 10 grown men struggling to keep up with a very attractive fit young lady in a pink bianchi top.

How about a motherbike?

On going at speed in lycra, a fairly rare experience for me it has to be said as there ain't many hills around here. The thought 'if I come off now its gonna really hurt' has occured. Just before tucking in a bit more.

I have just remembered the photo I took last year of someone who I occasionally used to see ... (I only ever saw them at this point - not just around the corner where I knew there was a steep downhill to a blind bend.

I saw a BMX once, with:

One lad pedalling, standing on the pedals. One lad sitting on the saddle. One lad standing on the rear stunt pegs and one lad sitting on the handlebars. Four lads, one bike, riding across a junction on the inner ring road.

And actually, they looked perfectly in control. I wouldn't like to do it myself, mind. But they looked more competent than some of the all the gear no idea folk I see squeezing down the inside of left turning lorries or jumping red lights.
