Brain Teasers
A Moment in Time
I race in a circle,
Always to the right.
From Zero to Sixty,
In the blink of an eye.
I rarely stop,
Save for a wind or a juice.
Reliable I am,
Reliant are you.

Not too badly done.
I must complain about two things:
1. How easy it was - it wasn't challenging
2. Apparently it goes from 0 to 60 in the blink of an eye - I dunno about your watch, but mine doesn't go THAT fast.
And why does it have to be a watch, why not a clock?

I got the teaser correct and liked it.
But, I don't quitre understand this line:
"I rarely stop,
Save for a wind or a juice."
Could you explain?

Yes, can you explain the wind and the juice thing?
apart from that, I caught it for once and I am totally fond of the word teasers. No maths for me thanky very much!!!

It was easy, but for 6:AM, easy is appreciated!
Wind - you wind up a watch or a clock.
Juice - battery power.
Have a happy day!

Good one zonaracer. Cleverly written and fun to do. Thanks for posting.
Was pretty easy. My eye blinks a lot faster than 60 seconds.
I rarely get riddles, so I didn't mind getting this answer so easily!!!
interesting even if a bit on the easy side
EZ make more! (maybe a little harder...)
Very good
when u said it was on a face as a hint i thought it meant human face

That was fun, I though it was a clock!
I thought it was too easy! A clock! WRONG!
Of course! To fit ALL the clues, it has to be the second hand. I forgot all about that.
Thanks. Fun quiz.

Very good one, a bit too easy, but very well done. Thanks
creatively written... easy and fun... though my second hand doesnt go 0-60 in a blink of the eye either
Good one Zona!! Like she said, the apple doesn't fall far! ;)
Easy but well written. Apart from the fact that, like others have already pointed out, the second hand takes a full minute (60 seconds) to go from 0 to 60 so the blink of an eye bit totally does not fit. If it takes anybody a minute to blink, it's not a blink, it's just shutting your eye for a minute. Sorry to nitpick, but in a riddle it is rather important that the whole clue fit the answer in some way so something like zero to sixty in a minute flat would have been more appropriate. Yes, it would have probably given the answer to anybody that hadn't already figured it out by then, but at least it would be true to the answer. Ok, nitpicking over. It was a cute riddle :-)
While we're nit-picking... it doesen't always go left to right, after it passes the 6 it goes left. Sorry to be like that, good riddle all the same
Way too easy.
well written and easy.
I got it the 2nd time i read it. This is a good one. Keep up the good puzzles.
I have heard that scienctists have figured out that the blink of an eye is 11/100ths of a second. Now thats fast.
I think it's after the twelve it goes right to left and after the six left to right. It goes clockwise.
I thought the answer was a second. not a second hand. Was on the right track pretty quickly though . Thanks for posting.

I got it right, though at first I thought it was a clock. Excellent.
Well written... good show!!
Easy!! But really fun!
easy
This was clever and fun. (Thanks for the explanation Teri - I was pronouncing wind as 'a blowing wind' and picturing orange juice ops)
simple
I got it right. It was easy after you read the hint. Thanks for the great teaser.

Very easy, and the title was a giveaway.
nice one ... but there is not a zero on a clock
For those wanting to get technical about the direction of travel - it goes right after passing the 9 and left after passing the 3. ;)
A bit too easy, even with the odd line of going zero to sixty in the blink of an eye. I don't blink for 60 seconds at a time!
