Sidecar

 
I've always had a soft spot for bikes with sidecars: I once rode a BSA Thunderbolt 650 twin with a Watsonian sports sidecar,on which I drove vast distances around England and Scotland in considerable bliss,sharing the cameraderie of the sidecar fraternity,always amazed that insurance companies rated it as safer than a solo bike,as the car had a tendency to rear up on left-hand bends if you touched the brake,the only way to get it back down being to open the throttle,this being the last thing your brain wanted to do.This scooter lives in Safed,and does duty as clothesline and planter.Versatile. Posted by Picasa
