Title: Unusual sights on the road
Post by: Alex on May 18, 2011, 06:11:49 PM
Hi,

As a service engineer I drive about 40-45,000 miles a year all over Scotland. Yesterday I was going north on the M80 to Stirling when I saw two motor bike combos coming in the other direction. Nothing unusual about that I here you say. Except the sidecar was actually a hearse :o I had to do a double take, and nearly crashed, but sure enough both sidecars had been converted into hearses.

I assume it was so the biker could have a last journey before being laid to rest.

A quick Google brought up this.

I've seen it all now. Or have I?

Quite right.  And you can also get trikes that are similar.  Sadly, I've been to a few of them with my club.
