I thought I left my bike right here by a skinny little sapling...


Our buddies over at QuickRelease.TV are monitoring a funny story over on their side of the pond: Trees that eat bikes. Seems to be the pet-rock story of the day, over in jolly ol' England.

See, if you abandon your bike next to a tree, and it happened to be a real junker with no theft-appeal, within a few decades that tree may begin to incorporate the bike into its outer growth rings.

Of course, if it's a Magna, Vertical, or any other Dynacrap bike, the tree will eventually spit the thing out and nudge it down the boulevard.
