Strange things people carry on bikes

<< < (2/3) > >>

When I first got married in the early 80's and we'd bought our first house, my wife and I did several shuttle runs to the local B & Q to bring rolls of loft insulation home on our bikes (we didn't have a car).  She had a C90 and managed two rolls per trip, I had a CB750 and got 3 rolls on for one trip, but some strange looks from on lookers whilst riding home.  Fortunately it we only lived a couple of miles from the store at the time.  Max speed (loaded) as I recall was about 25 mph!   

ka-ja:
Once did 15 miles with 8 square yards of carpet tiles stacked and tied on the pillion seat, interesting, as the heavy stack did not lean well into bends!

Why make several trips with bike parts when you could take the whole bike?!!  ;D

Many years ago a friend I worked with had  a ZZR 600, we worked next door to a hardware shop. He popped there lunchtime and bought a 25kg bag of coal.
At the end of the day, he sat on his bike with his arms in the air, we sat the bag of coal behind him and duck taped him and the coal together.
He had a 25 mile ride home and got there okay.
