Does my bum look big in this??

Does my bum look big in this??

This will be a long running category for the blog as there are so many astounding sights when it comes to transport.  Not only in the type of vehicle or animal; but what you can get onto it!

The truck in the picture is typically loaded for a journey.  But often loads are on smaller vehicles and motor bikes.  You only have to upgrade your bicycle or motorbike when you get a fifth family member!

Traditionally there were oxen carts and cows are still used today as are pony and carts.  The ubiquitous motorbike is the most common transport; followed by bicycle. An unnerving new threat on the roads is the soccer mom brigade in large 4WD's - always talking on the mobile and driving under 20kmh per hour.

Shots I hope to get:-

  • Baby in bucket on motorbike
  • Someone with an IV drip (someone else holding it up)
  • A pig, or 2
  • A motorbike carrying another one
