Hi, how are you? Allow me to introduce this podcast. You, podcast. Podcast, you. These are bicycle themed stories and essays by Peter Gelman. Do you like bikes? More importantly, do bikes like you? Well, these are odd stories. Humorous, satiric, silly, snidely, melancholic, absurd, and odd, these stories have had a wide success, picked up by bicycle anthologies and now available for your listening pleasure. Bikes, so often misunderstood and considered incomprehensible, Peter Gelman uncovers mysteries you never thought of about the two wheeled tribe, and explains them. Mysteries are so mysterious! As a bonus, podcast side-kicks include his office assistants, two pet guinea pigs named Ludwig and Schubert. Please listen often, until you memorize them. This will be reflected on your final grade. Some of these short works comment on deep, deep profundities, too deep, really, and too profound, celestial, thrumming and meaningful, for me to comment further here. (Too deep for tears. Okay, I consider my case made.) Others wallow in shallow depths, splashing about madly and making nonsense for the benefit of humanity. The rest is up to you.

What? More? About? Who? Me, me, me! Behold my wrinkled lip and sneer of cold command!  This podcast is about anything I think of connected to bikes. Usually it tries to touch lightly on the ridiculous and the funny and the profound. It varies. A few of them are wild essays, the rest stories, fiction…. sometimes commentary on our times. I hope you enjoy them.
