Has backriding gone to the dogs?

April 11, 2008

Although we Filipinos are not nearly as ‘talented’ as our Vietnamese brothers in fully utilizing the two-wheeled vehicle over and beyond its intended use, the image below just yearns to be shared.

The photo was taken with a phonecam by a rastaman while driving his SUV along C5 road (a national highway, mind you!) this morning. He said, the bike was running at around 60-70 kph and never slowed down while cornering.

It looks dangerous though. I bet it’s like watching a circus act. Dangerous but amusing none the less!

Pinoy biker and his dog

Here in Manila, a helmet is required by law for all riders and backriders. The thing is, the law didn’t specify if it applies to other species in the animal kingdom as well. :D

Awwoooo!

  5. taga pasig yang rider, yung aso walang tali pero may rubber mat para dun sa makakapit, a yung aso may id, just in case siguro na biglang tumalon at mawala. o kaya dognapin, maski ako tutubusin ko yung aso lalo na kung may ganyang talent.
