I seem to remember reading some HILARIOUS bicycle haiku on this here website. I thought I recalled it being in wrenches gears and routes. I remember one about Derrick and poo. I thought I remembered Lee writing a bunch of funny stuff.

I could be wrong on the last part, but I'm certain I remember bicycle haiku, though searches returned nothing of the sort. Direction pointing anyone?

I commented this to Kalen today:

I am sick today.
But we rode bikes anyway.
And it was good fun!

Try limericks.

http://www.point83.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=2801&start=0

Other interesting info on limericks:
... the true limerick, as a folk form, is always obscene ... from a folkloric point of view, the form is essentially transgressive; violation of taboo is part of its function.

Form:
A limerick has five lines, with three metrical feet in the first, second and fifth lines and two metrical feet in the third and fourth lines. A variety of types of metrical foot can be used, but the most typical are the amphibrach (a stressed syllable between two unstressed syllables) and the anapaest (two unstressed syllables followed by a stressed syllable). The rhyme scheme is usually AABBA.

Right right! That's what it was! I saw bicycle haiku elsewhere...

There's some great content in there for those of you who haven't seen that thread yet!

Pedalling fastly
Bicycle rounds the corner
Tracks equal face plant
