Uhm…wat? Why is the pygmy goat in harness attached to a frame bolted to the bicycle? Is she blind and the goat is acting as a guide dog for the bike?
@Bryonia and that’d be why it’s called WTF pics
What it looks like is she is trying to get the goat some exercise. I knew someone that would hook up a show lamb to a hotwalker to get it toned up for the show. Perhaps that’s what is going on here.
This is a weird way to do it, though. Most everyone else I knew just chased the animals around for an hour or so.
On second thought, she could be using it to train the goat for cart pulling. Although, the goat looks a little small for that.
Hmm, this is an odd one, haha.
My friend recommended me a very interesting place____billionaireromance .com____ It’s where wealthy singles looking for someone to enjoy their wealthy lifestyle with:)

Die in a fire damn spammer !!
Well, ok, who’s supplying the motive force here? I think it’s time to appoint a government bureaucracy to study the problem, attach sensors to the vehicle, determine whether the animal is being abused and by how much, then levy taxes on all of us to pay for all this, plus more on this citizen in proportion to how much she’s determined to be abusing said goat. It’s only fair.
I don’t find this too strange in light of the fact that we have a thing intended for just this purpose, except for dogs. The setup is kind of weird, though. Ours is just a sort of spring that acts to reel the dog in. Why a harness and frame instead?
Plus, there seems to be something up with the lady’s left leg. Maybe the goat helps propulsion and balance?
I think what’s happening here, and it actually makes it a little odder, is that that’s a scooter, not a bike. That goat looks like it’s supplying all forward motion. I’m going to have to agree with Sharmed. It looks like the goat’s being trained for pulling things with a harness. But logical explanations aside, still: WTF?
Found it: The Original Dog-Powered Scooter
Is that Martha Stewart?

@James
I was guessing either her, or Meryl Streep.
Where is her accordian?
Itchy gorilla! It’s an itchy gorilla!
awesome mst3k reference by the way.
I’ve heard of horse-power…but this is sad!
You know what’s crazy about this…it looks as if the contraption was made for this exact purpose.
I wonder if this works here:
what a lazy bum
The harness and frame provides better support in case the animal is not trained to the bike and will bolt or for those dogs (or goats) that may want to run off and chase squirrels and cats. It would provide a more stable set up.
It’s really not that weird, it’s probably a show goat that needs exercise and she has no other way. It’s not like she can pop it up on a jog a dog
@ Zage Hmmm didn’t think that one, but now that you mention it…..
blind goat?
She’s riding a scooter, and yeah, the harness seems made for it. If you go to Culpeppers, there they are, including a gang of dogs hitched to a trike.
looks kinda like the goat’s front left leg is broken or something why would it be pulled all the way up like that when its walking? May be she’s training the goat to walk with three legs
It’s not just a scooter. It’s a scooter that makes a subtle-flavored low-fat cheese.
It’s a seeing eye goat for blind bicyclists.
aww i love goats :d
She is wise not to have made the afore seen mistake of mixing accordion music and a trampoline with the goat’s workout…I can certainly understand why goats find that irresistible (foot starts tapping)
@Zage
Looks more like Victoria Wood to me
She’s only got one foot it seems.
Funny looking training wheel.
@wolfgang
Its leg isn’t broken. That’s how goats look when they move. They aren’t high steppers, but they do bend their knees pretty dramatically when they get going a little faster than a walk.
How do I know? I used to raise meat goats. I spent a lot of time feeding, watering, vetting, and just generally enjoying their company. Goats have got to be the funniest animals I’ve ever owned.
That’s what you get for buying Dodge. GM vehicles – You wouldn’t buy one, so we’re still taking your money but now you don’t get one of our vehicles….
this sucks, i like pineapple
the women is to fat, she’s getting the goat to do the work for her
“sidehacking”??
also, “too fat” – do you live in anorexiaville or something?
Ive seen rigs like that before they are meant for allowing one to bike and walk ones dog at the same time ( a regular leash can get tangled in the bikes wheels) why she has a goat strapped in I dont know
definitely an american. taking nature and making it its bitch.
