Do you ever sleep while riding on the back of a motorcycle?

I have done this sometimes. I'll be riding along and all of a sudden my helmet will knock into the back of hubby's helmet and I realize that I had fallen asleep. I tell myself not to fall asleep while riding but all the fresh air just kind of gets to me after awhile. Especially if it is a hot day. Where is the weirdest place you have fallen asleep?

Motorcycles scare me so one thing I would not be doing is sleeping while one was movinf, how can you hang on if you are asleep, Oh I think you must be a very deep sleeper...

Thanks everyone for responding. I also wanted to clarify that I don't really want to fall asleep on the bike but the wind and everything just starts to lull me to sleep. Also the type of cycle we have I would not be able to fall off as I have a backrest and armrests to keep me in place. I can do lots of things while on the bike. I even read books :)!

It's hard to sleep on a motorcycle. I never tried it nor I will never try it because it's hard to balance your body when riding to motorcycle. And aside from that it's very dangerous. I guess I will wait until I get home and just sleep in my bed. So it would be safe and comfortable. Don't do it again my friend, your risking your life. Take care!

I have never fallen asleep on the back of the motorcycle. Most times I am driving one so no falling asleep for me unless I wanna have a little accident. I can't say that I have ever fallen asleep anywhere weird. Just bed and couch for me.

Be careful what you do. It's very dangerous to sleep on a motorbike. Weirdest place, can't think of any at the moment. I seldom want to fall asleep when I'm out and about, unless really tired, I might sleep on the bus or train.
