Training Wheels...
First one was a lady, second seemed to be hubby maybe?
But seriously? Riding with training wheels? These are not trikes - if you look carefully, you can see the back wheel is still there...

More often then not the people using them are crippled in some way, I see a guy allot on my way to work with a Burgman 650 with those and a custom holder for his crutches.

Do they let you lean? If so, they're automatically superior to a trike.
It would be cool if they folded up at high speeds and came down under 10mph or so. |

Yesterday one of my buddies at the track had a birthday. We got to talking that neither of us had a contingency plan for living this long. If things keep going like this we may NEED training wheels on our bikes one day. Training wheels and a rack for our walkers

lol... odd, yes, but I bet any of you that have crashed your bikes wished you had installed a set of these training wheels on your bike the minute after your crash.

As for the bikes above with the 'training wheels', if they need them due to being handicapped, then by all means, do what you gotta do to ride. Have heard folks say these guys/gals have no business riding Takes a lot of heart to get out and keep living life when faced with some of the obstacles these folks have. |

No they're not. The first one is a video I remembered seeing earlier and the second one is just one I found when I searched youtube.
