That would be some serious weight to pedal around in combat.  I'd rather be on the camel.

"They've Put a Gatling On a Camel"
They've put a Gatling on a camel,
She wasn't Armed proper, you know.
They've put a Gatling on a camel,
So that from her humps bullets would flow.
And they're making other most dubious plans,
They're even even insisting the pigs should wear guns,
They'll strap up the ducks if we give them the funds
Since they've put a Gatling on a camel.
They've put a Gatling on a camel,
They claim she's more deadly that way.
They've put a Gatling on a camel,
The camel had nothing to say.
They squeezed it on to her, i'll never know how,
They say that she looks more tacticool now,
Lord knows what they've got in mind for the cow,
Since they've put a Gatling on a camel
