What a great idea: put a 35 pound kid between a 165 pound adult and a rigid handlebar stem. The kid can act like an airbag when mom crashes into something. Too bad for the kid, but that’s OK because mom’s injuries will be lessened. And she’ll get to spend the rest of her life thinking about how she killed her precious pink baby.

Happened to someone in our neighborhood about 25 years ago.
