The wheels on the bike go round and round

By Yokota Fritz


RocBike posts his Bicycle Haiku, and nice little love poem about his Motobecane. Don't forget also about Honku, the Zen Antidote to Road Rage.

Ouch! Maybe some road-raging motorists need the Zen Antidote: Motorist bites cyclist's ear off! A motorist in Germany passed two cyclists very closely, although the entire roadway was clear. One of the cyclists waved his arm in protest (*ahem*), so Mr. Uptight Motorist stopped, jumped out, assaulted the cyclist and bit his ear off.
