MOBE 07 Cycling Toward the End of History
October 14, 2007 07:52 PM PDT
Mysteries of the Bicycle Explained number 7 by Peter Gelman… Concerns the metaphysics of a cycling with a Bicycle Dynamo Hub in a time of war. A dynamo hub generates electricity for a handlebar lamp. The narrator discovers that a sprite lives inside the dynamo. He sees the light! He is a witness to local violence as war begins. He visits a wedding on top of a volcano. Portlanders are defiant of terror. He cycles so fast that his dynamo light uncovers a hyper-reality. He turns off the light to see the stars. He, too, is a galaxy. He turns on the light and finds a man lying on the road. The narrator considers himself tainted by evil as he fights evil. Finally, he considers how the dynamo hub could possibly influence the end of history.

About peterWho? Me, me, me! Behold my wrinkled lip and sneer of cold command! I have a bicycle! I'm the author of the mad satiric novel "Flying Saucers over Hennepin" (out of print, but some copies float around) and the super smart, vernacular, and historically accurate "Moonifest Destiny" (available online, do the google-loo), as well as the maximalist poetic not funny punk rock novel now available through ancient recorded cassette tapes converted to MP3 and distributed for you my dear as a podcast (google "Skull of the Robot"). 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. Fans of this ShowFavorite LinksPeter's Friends
