sidecar/passenger seat for mountain bike

Hi, Does anyone know whether you can get like a sidecar type thing to fit on a mountain bike so as
an adult may ride as a passenger? A bit like those bicycle taxis you sometimes see?

Thanks Jeremy

This subject came up once, and I think someone did find some off-the-wall manufacturer. It wasn't a
sidecar - that'd NEVER work - it was some sort of thing you pull behind. It wouldn't be anything for
riding off-road; you'd be lucky to pull it up any reasonable hill ON the road. And it wouldn't be
cheap, as there'd be almost no demand for it.

A Google search might turn something up, if you search for "rickshaw" or some such term. Maybe
"grandmother" also, since that's who the guy was thinking about towing around.

Those things they had on Amazing Race this week were called cyclos. Maybe that helps?
