I haven't ridden a bicycle for years. Walking is good enough for me.
In Denmark they have this nifty recumbent bike with three wheels and an egg-shaped streamlined cover around it. I'll be you could mount a mast and sail too!
It's a shame that most Americans associate bicycles with children. If grownups started using bikes instead of cars, it could revolutionize their way of life!
I once saw this Italian movie The Bicycle Thief, about a man whose livelihood depends on his bicycle being robbed of it, then him and his sone going on a long search for it. That's a movie I'm never going to see again--too sad for me!
I remember this commercial for Chef Boyardee's Beefaroni where a kid on a bike zooms into an alley, then half a dozen kids on bike come zooming out!
I also remember an episode of the religious puppet show Davey and Goliath where he met a girl and let her ride on his bike's handle bars--though he knew that was dangerous--and they got into an accident.
