bored soldiers two

Well I know we have talked about how soldiers get bored sometimes. Well we had one of those last night. Julia came in last night while we were sitting around watching tv, and told us that we had to come outside and see this. Apparently one of our friends bought a bike from someone that is slightly unique.

I may have mentioned once before that we have to walk a lot here to get anywhere. So a bike is something that everyone is looking to buy. A lot people in the unit that was here before us had bikes that they wanted to sell, some of those bikes were obviously a little different.

The red circle indicates that there is no magazine in the weapon. While this particular vehicle isn't the most combat ready, it is one of the most amusing. Maybe we could put some armor on it or something. Well as far as its transportation capacities go, I think I might ask for a ride to work tonight. :)

That is a hoot. He could make a killing trucking people back and forth to work. One dollar a person and he could probably fit three or four on there.

I hope you get a bike ride home after work ... sounds like you need it some days (or nights ... whatever it is there)!

The painting from your unit is awesome ... very nice artwork! Yes, the flag waving is very effective! Thanks for sharing with us!

ACK. I see a safety issue!!! The guy riding the bike has on a helment. But, the guy on the back moving around and shooting like a cowboy on a horse doesn't even have a cap on!!!

He's gonna get a ticket. :>)

I don't think he is going to be taking people back in forth with it because it has a flat tire. We have nothing to blow it up with.
