We had a Cairn Terrier that rode on the gas tank of our tour bike. Hubby got a sidecar as he thought the dog would be more comfortable. Duke peed on it and never even got in. Rode the gas tank for 18 years.
I was just randomly reading about how the shell of a turtle/tortoise is part of their skeleton and they do feel it if we touch them. It made me think of this cartoon. Their shells do feel pain.
Umm… the bird is the reason you get airborne. Without him holding onto you, you’ll die. Oh, and PEE ESS, Is that glued to your shell or are the a bunch of screw holes drilled in it?

Don’t you need one on the other side, too, Old John? Or do you counterbalance from within?

What’s the bird supposed to do? Sit “side-saddle” with his legs dangling out?

Good luck making him ride there.

Ever ridden with a sidecar? When you accelerate, the outfit turns towards the ’car, breaking turns it away. It makes steering fun………

He may have fewer talon marks, but I bet he has some permanent mounting holes now.

Now he needs to get the bonnet (shell) polished. Anyone up for it?

I thought the bird needed to grasp the turtle’s shell to fly him around.

Well, if he would slow down when he came to those speed bumps he wouldn’t have talon marks on his shell.

It’ll also improve your balance in the turns. Just keep in mind you’re a wide track, now.

I’ve never ridden in a sidecar. I wonder if they’re comfortable?
