Blindspot


I suppose many people don't think about golf buggy design. But Squeak has reminded me of something else. Golf buggies are not designed for late night driving. As you will see from the picture they have a notable omission in that there are no windscreen wipers. In addition they do not have air-con. By the time we had finished the sweep it was about 3 am. A mist had descended. There was distinct moisture in the air. And the windscreens had misted up. So driving down the hill entailed the driver and the wing-man on pillion to both hang out of the side of the buggy so that they could see where they were going. I somehow feel that the image so generated did not help what little street cred I may have.
