Perhaps it’s the time to think that makes riding a bike such a good time to observe and consider and evaluate. Or perhaps it’s the stark fear of traffic that stimulates the mental juices. Or perhaps it’s just the tiny little seat, and you have to think about something other than the pain. Either way, here’s another observation from the two-wheeled world.
I used to have a light on my bike, a built-in dynamo. I could flip a small gear on to the bike tire, and as I pedaled, the bike tire rolled. As the tire rolled, the light wheel would turn, very quickly. This generated enough power to produce an extremely bright light. The faster I pedaled, the brighter the light. When I coasted, however, of course, what else, my light dimmed. When I stopped, the light went out.
Isn’t that just how it is in our homes and where we work?
