I jut got back from overseas, and I've saw LOTS of people riding with another seated the rear bike rack.
See these images to get an idea of what I'm talking about.

Coming back home, I tried to look for such a thing, but was stuck. It dosen't seem to exist. The closest thing I've seen is a regular bike rack rated at 55lbs. Am I missing something? It seems like I can remember in the good ol' days everyone seemed to be hitching a ride on the back of someone's bike.
Question is: Is there a product in the US that is made for such a task, if not, do you think the 55lb rack will hold an adult? Mind you, this will be for city biking, only on occasion & nothing extreme.
Also, before you mention it, tandem bikes and cart attachments are out of the question. The whole idea is for the bike to still be an everyday bike, while on occasion letting a friend hop on and ride down to the coffee shop.
