Stupid things a bicycle makes you do
Run after cars
A bicycle can feel so comfortable on a road and when you have lots of glucose in your blood, you may feel quite energized. When these conditions are true, often when you are on a road, you will unconsciously start driving instead of cycling and looking back, I think this is quite a stupid hilarious thing to do.
Turn a handle bar into a steering wheel
You have a handle bar, when are you going to get that. The idea of a bicycle being a car is outplaced, yet many of us see a posh car pass by and we then imagine taking turns by turning our imaginary steering wheel.
Feign stregth
This applies to men and boys only. You are cycling oblivious of anyone and anything in particular. You are of course alert, then you notice a beautiful girl. You take your time while you are behind her, but as you approach, you take this posture that tries to show this is a very easy task pedaling, despite the gradual uphill slope that you are on. In Africa, we say you are eating hills like anthills.
Day dream
Most people get on a bike and start cycling for several minutes before they tune out of the world. You are alert to things around you but your mind is also racing on its own with its thoughts, thinking about all the kinds of magical things that you are going to achieve. It's funny. I think that is why cycling around Nairobi is often so refreshing.
