1: Rikshaws that don’t emit gallons of smoke.
2: Rikshaws with silencers.
3: Rikshaw drivers that KNOW how to drive.
4: Rikshaws without ten thousand creepy mirrors.
5: Rikshaws with correct meters.
6: Sane rikshaw drivers [yes, I once met a mentally disturbed rikshaw driver who proceeded to creep me out throughout the 30 minute trip]

Although unrelated, I couldn’t resist passing on this ‘Rickshaw’ blog by Sabahat Iqbal of SV: http://rickshaw.blogspot.com/

Two things:

“gallons of smoke” .. interesting connotation ….. gallons is usually reserved for liquids …. perhaps cubic foot would work?

secondly, I just had to ask this one … when you met that mentally disturbed rikshaw driver, if by any chance you were wearing a sleeveless suit? :p

How about the simple wish “no rickshaws” :) But then, I guess it wouldn’t be a wishlist, it would just be a wish!

I can’t imagine a rikshaw without the noise. It just would’nt be a rikshaw then.
