Cargo

Things I have seen balanced or strapped onto motorbikes:

-two adults and two floppy, sleeping children

-stacks of corrugated cardboard and broken-down boxes piled twice as high as the driver

-plastic bags in the same manner

-several beautiful, elaborate funereal flower arrangements (the standing kind)

-women riding side-sadle as passengers

- toddler sitting in a bamboo highchair propped on the floor of a scooter

-a/c and washing machine units

-insulated food delivery cubes

-coils of rebar

-in the rain, the driver wearing a poncho with three small passengers hidden underneath the flaps

-a scruffy dog sitting behind the driver
