Been doing the typical NW Rockies summer hobby; tourist watching. And I have a few questions.
Why do people that own kayaks transport them on top of cars that are half as big? Do little econycars haul kayaks better than normal cars?
Along that line, why do people buy economical small cars, and outfit them all year with very large tall plastic thingey containers strapped to the roof, that make their small econocar an 8 foot tall aerodynamic brick that now gets 14 mpg?
Why do people tour on mountain bikes with luggage packs strapped for and aft both sides and wear spandex? To be aerodynamic? Or just to feel granola sexy?
Why do people haul Harleys in 10 thousand dollar enclosed trailers behind 100 thousand dollar RV's? Would Peter Fonda do that? Eazy Trailer'n?
Back on the spandex crowd..... Why do they now pull infant trailers behind mountain bikes? Squash my kid before you do me? Do the infants enclosed in them tent things wear spandex?
The one I like is people visiting strange places they likely will never come to again think shitfaced drunk is a local culture..... and it is the culture of touristas downtown. The zoo, the slow moving stumbling herds of drunken cattle.....
