    'Minds me of a guy I saw coming down the road a while back. When I first spotted him, it was the headlight that really caught my eye, and then in the heat waves shimmering off the road, all I could see was two black lines going up and out, and two going down and out, with a bright spot in the middle. As he got closer, he morphed into the guy on a chooper with some really tall apes - not as radical as these, but enough to make me think he must have a bit of a hard time with that long girder front, and keeping that thing going in a straight line.

    I really hope the entire photo is just a hi quality photoshop job. Hate to think someone would actually be stupid enough to build something like that!!!!!

    Sorry Dave, there is no shortage of stupid people out there. No matter how stupid it is if you build it someone will be stupid enough to ride it. The reason you don't see these out much is because after they get down to the end of their street all the blood has left their arm's and they have to go back home.

    Maybe the dude had a bad accident and his shoulders are permanently pinned in that position.

    I looked at this thing again; don't know about the photoshop thing, but it does sort of put me in mind of that Orangutan that played in that movie with Clint Eastwood.
