Schadenfreude

There is a haiku contest run by bicycle.com that gives away a $4999 bike (no motor) for the winning haiku. My entries include:


My wheels are humming.
Two legs doing the talking
Smiling sprocket style!

Weight gifted riders
Tiny spandex-clad racers
Biking invites all.

Follically challenged
Bald tires on hairpin turns
No twists, twirls or waves.

Schooled on climbing hills
All terrain academy
Will I pass the grade?

A continuation of biking haikus added 3/29/05.

Drowning your lungs with
Outdoor intoxication
Pedal propelled breeze.

Slay the mountain top
Annihilate the steep slopes
Violence by bike.

Vintage handlebars
Single speed balloon tires
Paradise on wheels.

My mind is coasting
Must put my body in gear
Wheels go round and round.
