In Which the Crazy Lady Flies

My sister Pat posted this for me on Facebook this week—this video of something called “artistic” bicycling.

The young lady, a German named Violra Brand, has strength and athleticism, and does things with a bicycle that I would not have done even when I was young and would never do now. It’s both exhilarating and a bit disturbing to watch.

Children, don’t try this at home. And I don’t hope to ever see anybody doing this on RAGBRAI!
