    What you see when you don't have a camera or a gun? Not this time!

    While in Thailand I spotted this coming out of a sidestreet. A wee bike with traditional sidecar attached and obviously had a towbar as well.

    He'd probably be dead.

    The guy with the sidecar probably would have had a gun. And quite happy and not scared to use it.

    Prolly a dealer. Most small businesses here use tricycles (small bike with s/car) for transport.

    Range in size from as small as 90cc to a massive 175. I seem to recall seeing a 200 once, but not sure.

    I love foreign countries. Towing two trailers, sitting on top of buses, 5 people in a rickshaw, masturbating on an elephants head. Classic.

    Looks like Patong...

    And yeah, those sidecarts are commonly used for pretty much anything. When I was over there I saw one with an outdoor chair mounted to it and an old trout sitting in it looking disappointed... Pretty sure it had an umbrella attached too.
