Gringo on a moto in CTG

Another thread got me wondering, for all the alleged tourism going on in CTG, and the number of non-Colombian people living there, has anyone ever seen or been a gringo on a mototaxi in CTG? There are thousands of them there, and it just occured to me that I have never seen a gringo on one.

I never even noticed a mototaxi What on earth does it look like?

I've seen mopeds transporting entire families. My favorite is the two cops to a bike thing... hey, bonding is important in any effective combat unit!

But moto taxi? THAT'S hillarious. You've got to put your arms around some dudes waist? Cuddle up?

I see business opportunity. Hot chicks piloting moto-taxi's? Naw... they're WAY to lazy to go down that road...

Yup A buddy of mine from New Jersey used to take a mototaxi from Laguito to centro around 8:30 am, five days a week, when he was taking Spanish classes. He made it a lot faster because the moto could weave in and out of traffic.

There is no way in hell I'd ride on a moto. The bus works just fine.
