MARY ESTHER — When George Puett saw a man trying to load siding on his motorcycle, he got out his camera and started taking pictures.

"Don't you have anything else to do?" asked the man, who was not identified.

"No," Puett answered. "I'm waiting for you to wreck."

Puett says it took the man two attempts before he managed to drive off down Bryn Mawr Boulevard, "wobbling back and forth."

maybe the first guy doesnt own a vehicle and its too much money to pay for delivery of such a small load. too bad the guy who was snapping pics didnt offer to help as opposed to making fun. polly anna

Home Depot delivers for $25 bucks. A good investment, imho.

“wobbling back and forth.”

I do that without a bike.

That’s how I carried my crutches after the first time I dropped my bike.

Somehow, I doubt that the siding is going to arrive in very good condition.

That’s the way I do it, too. Here in Papua sights like that are not uncommon at all. In the states, I recommend putting red flags on each end.

He should have used something like a RETRIEVER.Then he could tow a stationwagon with his siding strapped on top... or not.

Yes. My brother recently loaded up a bunch of trees in the back of his truck to help some goofy broad trying to get them home in her Honda, after being told that delivery would take 4 days. After helping her and her husband unload, and declining payment, he found a C note folded underneath his windshield wiper. Good karma all the way around.

Now thats just nuts. In Saigon you can sit at a cafe and watch hundreds of cycles loaded with five times that amount of conduit, gutter, lumber, steel and alom extrusions, some look 20’ long. BUT the product is mounted PARALEL with the bike, and it seems to work.
