This is impressive
 
OK, she may be riding a trike and may have recently treated herself to a motor but this is nonetheless an impressive feat of utility cycling: BBC - Capital - 'I hadn't been home for three years': One migrant's struggle

Pretty neat! Tnxs.

In the West, that rig would earn her a tasing, ticketing, jailing, licensing, impounding, towing charge and forced safety training to name a few. For her safety, of course.

Styrofoam, and all hollow boxes too. :foo:

It is a big load, but I bet it hardly weighs 100 lbs.

I think the biggest issue is loading the bike so one has zero side or rear visibility. Perhaps made up by foam crash protection. :thumb:

The video says "electric motor", but it sounds like a small gas engine to me.

I dunno ... It takes a heck of a lot more than 100 pounds hanging off the back of my trike to raise the front wheel off the ground like that ...
