AggieDave 6 #1 July 16, 2004 Have you ever seen the "pocket rocket" bikes? Now someone has taken it a step further and added a sidecar. Honestly, this is one of the stupidest things I've ever seen, but someone thinks its cool, so good for them. http://pocketbike.com/sidecars.htm Oh, scroll down and look at the pic at the bottom of the page!--"When I die, may I be surrounded by scattered chrome and burning gasoline."

Guest #2 July 16, 2004 hehehe A friend of mine who works at Microsoft has a guy on his team who owns one, and runs it at Red West. One day while on his pocket bike he got chased around by a really pissed-off Canadian Goose. My friend said they all laughed so hard they almost wet themselves... mh ."The mouse does not know life until it is in the mouth of the cat." Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mattjw916 2 #7 July 16, 2004 lol, that is pretty lame... I'll stick with my Ducati 748 and BMW K1200RS... I still don't "get" the pocket bike thing. I rather spend my money on a new exhaust for my car or more skydiving lessons. NSCR-2376, SCR-15080 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Misslmperfect 0 #8 July 16, 2004 LOL the 50s are great! i dunno about a side car though....a bike show i was at a couple weeks ago had a mini bike freestyle competition! this guy whipped out like 20 backflips throughout the night on a little mini ramp...it was too cool! in the middle of the street bike competition he'd come putting out at about 20 mph, do a backflip, and just keep on going Oh Canada, merci pour la livraison!
