To the Moon in a Centrifically Powered Bicycle
It was an overcast day and I was in a large spaceship dump. Rocket-ships littered the land from left to right. I traveled a ways on a small path, and came to a strange basketball court. There was a group of high-school and college guys playing ball and just hanging out.
A small ways off from the cement basketball court was another large court, but not for basketball. It was roughly a fifty square foot cement court with large steel poles in it. The four poles were situated along the perimeter of the slab, each at the middle of their respective side. The poles went up about twenty feet, then turned inward at a ninety degree angle, and connected at the center.
There was a large congregation of young men crowded around this court, so I went in to get a better look. Attached to the poles that joined in the center was tied a heavy duty rope. Attached to the rope was a BMX bicycle. There was a guy on this bike swinging up and down like a tire-swing, only doing special tricks that you'd find people doing at a BMX competition. He did several tricks, then at the apex of one of his swings, his foot slipped and he came crashing down onto the cement.
