Well, the bike's handlebars could look like horns, I suppose... -- CHUMP #1 (CHarge Up Muppet) Pip

I've seen many (dogs and cats) on motorbikes on my travels, usually either in a tailpack or top box. Sometimes a tank bag, or a sidecar. Obviously all fairly small ones. In some cases they have had helmets. We met Ara in 2010. https://www.adventurebikerider.com/article/ara-spirit/ The sound was in and out on the video, so I could not make out what was said. But i would guess it will be along the lines of how the dog would probably crush their chest in an accident. and then being strapped on would start mauling the rider (believe me , dogs will maul a helper when hit by a vehicle). -- Bruce Porter "The internet is a huge and diverse community but mainly friendly" http://ytc1.blogspot.co.uk/ There *is* an alternative! http://www.openoffice.org/

Had to prise its jaws open with the hand it wasn't clamped on to.
