Motorcycle Sidecar Races Are Dangerous — And Sick As Hell

If you have a death wish that isn’t satisfied by normal motorcycle driving, this may be the sport for you. Motorcycle sidecar races have all of the fun and danger of normal motorcycle races, only with the added weight of a sidecar and a whole other person.

Given this extra mass, the second person must maneuver around the vehicle to ensure that weight is properly distributed — even when the driver of the motorcycle is whipping the machine around sharp turns. I guess there are more embarrassing ways to die.
