I took this photo about a week ago in Capitan, New Mexico should probably be in 'The Stupid Shit I Saw Today' forum, but seems there isn't one (yet!), I'll just have to park it here for now...

I bought this at Home Goods over the weekend. I just know there HAS to be something terribly politically incorrect about it, but it's mine now, and I will enjoy Nelson Mandela's smiling face on my desk. In perpetuity.
EDIT : Just looked it up. Nothing but great reviews. I am in the clear.

Driving home yesterday saw an oncoming Harley, looked like a trike until it passed. Not a trike but a Harley with TRAINING WHEELS!

There are a couple of videos on Instagram of a Goldwing and a K1600 with retractable training wheels.
It's beyond hilarious. |

OFG Technically, they turn the machine into a rather sad four-wheeler, though I suppose installing them would allow people with physical limitations to keep on riding for a few more seasons without having to cough up mega-thousands for a dedicated three-wheeler or trike conversion. |

Not everyone has perfect balance, vertigo or blood pressure problems, hypothyroid issues, who is to say that somebody "oughta?"
Not my thing and not many people's thing either or there would be a lot more equipped that way. At least if you had a set you wouldn't need a side stand! My next scooter might be a 4-wheeler, battery powered with a flag up the back. That way you can park it inside the pub.

I totally agree but all I see is training wheels on really big tourers.
If you have balance issues surely you'd reduce the effect with something that carries less weight as it's easier to control. I was also generalising. |

Maybe not weird. Maybe necessary.
I did not take this photo, but saw the truck on my way home from coffee this morning. You can tell I did not take the photo because in the photo the SUN is out, and here in Southern California, that shit doesn't happen anymore.
