Strange Sight

We were in downtown Billings, Montana yesterday afternoon. I saw something I don't think I've ever seen before. Let me rephrase that. I saw something I know I've never seen before.

So, it was not a busy day in the city. Not a lot of traffic. But there were a fair number of people on bicycles. One man went pedaling through the intersection. He had a duffel bag over his shoulders, so he was hunched over a bit. And on top of that duffel was perched, ever so nicely, a little white and brown dog. No leash, no tether. Just standing on top of the duffel, faced forward, like a statue.

Now I just wondered what feat of gravity was at work to keep that little dog perched so perfectly on top of that bag as that man pedaled speedily down the street.

So check out this link:

Although it addresses motorcycles, it does have some humorous pictures.
