I really like that one. You never think of bikes like that, do you?
dosent make much sense, why did it even get accpeted?
u shouldnt be rude!!
angel dont be so rude. It was a very good teaser because it takes a while for the wheels to be thought of like two pressurized containers. I really like it angelicious!!
Yeah, but "suspended" means hanging from the ceiling or a scaffold! He/she is SITTING on the bike

I agree with boodler. Good teaser though
I was way off! I thought he was in the gas chamber and then was executed!
He could have also been repairing two propane storage tanks when they exploded or something similar.
I didn't get it, but I still enjoyed it. Perhaps "supported" instead of "suspended" would be better?
