We all know Aussies love a good ‘barbie’, but this effort to pick up a used one is perhaps going too far.
This funny motorcycle pic shows Michael Wiles riding along Melbourne’s Eastern freeway, looking through the grill of a barbecue he picked up off the side of the road.

On another motorist snapping the picture and publishing in the media, Wiles has been charged with careless driving and fined $800 AUD (about 550 euros).

Wiles had seen the abandoned barbecue on the nature strip, and needing one at home, decided to try to get it there on his motorcycle.
Apparently the barbecue was a ‘dud’ and from what we know of them, that seems to be evident from the picture – or why was it abandoned in the first place? (Wiles is a New Zealander anyway, so maybe he didn’t know…).
Meanwhile, the court magistrate issuing the fine was more than a little surprised about the case before him.

According to court reports, it could only be described as ridiculous and even lead to discussions of what objects are carried around on motorcycles in countries such as Vietnam.

Wiles has since declined an offer to participate in advertising for the retail chain, Barbecues Galore.
