Motorcycle archery
:?: Something I had a go at with a few biker friends lately - shooting a bow (frp/wood Korean style) from the pillion seat of a moving motorcycle. Obviously the driver can't shoot, but from the passenger position behind it was quite possible. On a sports type bike where the driver is leant right forward and the passenger is sitting up relatively high it gives a quite a good field of fire.
You have to be careful not to move too much and upset the balance - particularly at lower speeds (and not let your lower limb strike the driver in front). Didn't manage to hit much but its the first time I've tried this kind of thing - and I wondered how similar it would be to horse archery. I guesss there is none of the movement you would have with a horse, and so it is probably more like shooting from a chariot. :D

Similar in idea (though quite a bit faster) to the tractor archery my son and I did, and which I posted on the old ATARN site last summer.
