Tony is a big man, about 6'2" and he never rode very fast while he was carrying his bass.
Maybe my perspective was colored by the fact that the day I posted that, the wind was gusting up to 48 mph. Having lived in windy places, I do tend to take wind into consideration when taking the bass places - it makes a great sail.

And, again perspective, my shortest brother is 6'6". I've never considered a slender 6'2" guy big - just right, in fact, like DH.
