It's good for a laugh: ================= > > An interesting aside: my car has 100 bhp; my 84 Yamaha motorcycle >has 120 bhp. Maybe I should pull the boat with the bike...although >stopping might be exciting. > I once heard a story about a guy who pulled a (normal - not made for a bike) hardtop tent trailer with a motocycle. He was driving along one day when a police cruiser came along the road towards him. The driver was so suprised to see a tent trailer with a headlight coming down the road towards him that he went off the road and into a tree. I wonder if the police could sue the guy on the bike? If you really plan on doing this, maybe you should consider a special liablilty insurance for such things :-) ? ================== 1 1 1 1 2 1 Doug Williams 1 3 3 1 AT&T Bell Labs 1 4 6 4 1 Reading, PA 1 5 10 10 5 1 mhuxl!daw1 1 6 15 20 15 6 1
