Taxycle ?

Do you think taxi and the like is the luxury enjoyed only by city slickers? Don't you think our hicks have their own taxycles? In places far away from cities where taxi drivers do not care about going, bikes are rode on bumpy and sometimes muddy country roads for taxi, carrying passengers on the back for a fee. Better yet is motor cycle or the " electronic donkey " for taxi.
