Racing Cars

   There was a young fellow who was quite inventive and was always trying
out new things. One day he thought he'd see just how fast a bicycle
could go before it became uncontrollable. He asked his friend, who
owned an old Mustang, if he could tie his bike to the bumper of his
car to test his theory.

   His friend said, "Sure."

   So the young man tied his bike to the back of the car and said to his
friend: "I'll ring my bike bell once if I want you to go faster, twice
if I want you maintain speed, and repeatedly if I want you to slow down."

   With that, off they went.

   Things were going pretty well, with the car driver slowly speeding up
to well over 60 mph. The young fellow on the bike was handling the
speed just fine.

   Suddenly, a black Corvette came up beside them and before you knew it
the fellow driving the Mustang forgot all about the fellow on the bike
and took to drag racing the Corvette.

   A little further down the road sat Officer John in his police cruiser,
radar gun at the ready. He heard the two cars before his radar flashed
105 mph. He called into headquarters on his radio:

   "Hey, you guys aren't going to believe this, but there's a Corvette
and a Mustang racing out here on Highway 3, and there's a guy on a
bike ringing his bell and waving his arms trying to pass them!"
