Given the parking thread, this about riding in car parks (I don't know why I like riding through car parks, up and then down, but I do).
Upwards
Squeak from your tyres echoing
A car on some other level
Distant though virtually above
Interloping
Roads may be for sharing
But only cars park
In a car parkDownwards
Free rolling out of the wind
On the smoothest surface of the day
Looking out for lights
Reversing imminent
180 degree turns
Brake, apex, pedal
No need for a ticketThen out
Into the light
The air
The noise
The potholes
It's a shock to the system
And so much worse

Look out for a giant poem on the Royal Mile tomorrow, at Sailors Arc

"I blame him
For my n+1"
I didn't just make him up. Richard was a year or two older than me, and always seemed a step ahead in the bike stakes.
@mgj - that's my lunch hour sorted then.
