I hope they made it alive!
On the eighth day God created the C5, and it was better looking than anything on the planet.

Any idea where that photo was taken? Maybe Flushing New York?

What is shocking is, that except for the fake baby I think the other 8 people may actually be riding on the same bike.

Fake baby? You mean that's not the " Bucket O Baby" special? Either way, It's a great shot..

You see this sort of thing a lot in Thailand - although 9 has to be a record. These folks look a bit more Himalayan.
Fake baby?  And did you know princess Di was an alien? And they never landed on the moon? And the CIA blew up the towers? And on....and on...and on....(yawn)   ::)   ;)

Yes, the baby was obviously "photo shopped" in later.

Oh I hope not, although he does seem entirely un-phased by it all. Unlike the nervous looking little guy on the back  -  there's going to be laundry required there I think..... :D

If that baby is photoshopped, whoever did it is real good. But I must say, it doesn't look like there is enough room in the bucket  for the rest of the baby.

The baby is way too big, it isn't cut out well and the top is still on the bucket!

Back in the Horror Time of my life,(1968-1971) I saw many unbelievable loads staggering about the streets of Saigon on Mopeds, and Honda 90's The strangest had to be the two painters on two 50's with a twelve foot ladder slung over their shoulders. several buckets of paint were hung from the ladder. They must have had some kind of mental telepathy between them. They rode tandem in perfect synchronization.
