Saw the weirdest thing...

I was driving down this country road when a guy came riding around the
corner on a road bike that was EIGHT FEET TALL! It was a modern
bike--it was made in a totally pro way---somehow a second tall bike
seemed inserted into a base bike. He had a pack on and was acting,
looking, riding just like a commuter. I was amazed and cracked up and
waved.

I've seen weird bikes before, but always in metro areas.

The last time I had a weird bike encounter was when I was having
dinner in Chicago and a guy came riding by on a TEN FOOT TALL road
bike! He, too, was acting just like a commuter. Not like he was doing
any crazy performance art stunt---just riding by on his bike. That
bike was set up like 3 bikeframes at the bottom, two in the middle
then one on top.

You shouldn't drive when taking such strong substances.

For heaven's sake! The handlebars should be *lower* than the seat!
