立命館大学駐輪所の看板A comical sign graces the front of a bicycle parking lot at Kyoto's Ritstumeikan University.
It presents a list of many verboten behavior.
Among them was a picture of two young thugs riding on a single bicycle.
Two to a bike is one of many prohibited but rarely enforced rules in Kyoto.
What is funny is the rendering of the two young men. They are straight out of Be Bop high school, 1950s era hooligans.
The popular manga series Be Bop High School ran in Weekly Young Jump and spawned many films.
The hair is the giveaway, and it is a safe bet that among the 12,000 or so students at Ritsumeikan today not one looks anything like these two.
