Never seen that before

Motorcycle and sidecarImage by Billy V via Flickr
While driving home from work today, I was passed by something I do not recall ever seeing in person before: a motorcycle with a sidecar, complete with somebody in the sidecar.

That was neat, but it occurs to me that personally I'd be hesitant about riding a sidecar. The thought of being that low to the ground at freeway speeds does not appeal, even if I were wearing a helmet. Of course I've never found the idea of driving a motorcycle attractive either.

If you saw more sidecars you might appreciate them more, not necessarily to take a ride, that's rather special.
