Shifters and sugarcubes -- Happy Bicycle Day!

Shifters and sugarcubes -- Happy Bicycle Day!

Today (19 April) is Bicycle Day, marking the day back in 1943 that Swiss Chemist Albert Hofmann dropped LSD, hopped on his bike and ultimately made his way home (where he thought his neighbor was an evil witch who'd poisoned him). Later his trip got better. Also -- I had NO IDEA that there were so many songs written about bikes! (Research fatigue)
