Slow, Slow, Thick, Thick Snow

If you want to get from A to B
I'll give you this advice for free:
You'll find that cycling in the snow
Is not the quickest way to go.

By Colin McNaughton from There's An Awful Lot of Weirdos in Our Neighborhood

Haiku

The wind whizzing by,
pedaling faster, faster,
next, the finish line.

The Heron and Rosanna

"Teach me how to cycle
And I'll teach you how to glide,"
Said the heron to Rosanna
By the sunny waterside.

 Impossible, impossible,
But wait, look over there:
The heron on the saddle
And Rosanna in the air.

By Richard Edward from Moon Frog
 

Phantom Bike
There is a bike, a phantom bike,
That rides and stalks every night
It moves and pedals, and steers
and provokes many fears.

The phantom bike has run down many men
and it's sound, a slight din
no one knows the phantom bike,
but be safe, ride at night with a light.

By Kevin
