Sleeping Beauty on a Kyoto Bike

Kyoto Woman Sleeping on Bicycle自転車で寝ている京美人

At first this woman appeared to be sleeping.

She wasn't.

Seated on her mama chari (mama chariot) on a side street just north of Sanjo - Kawaramachi, she was deep into a conversation on her cell phone.

The image is testament to the type of kick stand her bicycle has.

It is a rear wheel drop out kickstand that is standard issue on most mami chari bikes.

Short of a large truck or typhoon grade winds, nothing can topple a bike supported by this type of kick stand.

Perfect for loading up on groceries, kids front and back - and even for a quick phone call.
