I did this as a child not fully expecting what would happen. I learn from experience.

[–]legitimategrapes 237 points238 points ago

That's half true for me. I put a stick in my spokes once and flipped. Then instead of learning better, I did it again to try to figure out why it happened. For science!

[–]BlackDave 26 points27 points ago

The day I use that combination and a friend asks me how I learned about it, am I going to have to tell them that it was in a post about putting objects in a front wheel of a bike causing it to flip?

[–]NedryOS 17 points18 points ago

Just send them this.

[–]done_holding_back 7 points8 points ago

Whoa.

Edit: double whoa, this retains form entries. I use Linux a lot and use Ctl-W to delete the last word. Sometimes I do that in Windows textareas and close the tab, losing everything I'd entered, and then I go beat my wife. Now I know that Ctl-Shift-T can not only bring back the lost tab, but also the lost text and save my wife having to tell the neighbors that she walked into a door.

[–]legitimategrapes 15 points16 points ago

Wish I had read that before I pressed it.

          Only once more on purpose, but I was just always that kid. I got hit by a slow-moving car last year and I was like, "that wasn't so bad compared to that other stuff."

          [–]Aratar2011 6 points7 points ago

          I'm imagining this car slowly hitting you because you've jammed another stick in your bike. This image amuses me.

          Did you write it down? If not, you were just messing around.

          [–]Narfubel 4 points5 points ago

          I figured it out when I was flying down a hill and my front brake cable came loose and went into the spokes.

          [–]gryts 4 points5 points ago

          That's half true for me. I threw a stick like a javelin into my brother's bike spokes as he drove by. His spokes broke and he fell off.

            I did this as a child. I used my foot though. Sticks are for pussy's.

            [–]Kr0niK 31 points32 points ago

            Yay I'm not the only one... my face broke my fall though. A stranger picked me up (no rape) and took me to the hospital.

            [–]XWUWTR 13 points14 points ago

            Nice strangers where you live. Similar thing happened to me. I lay breathing asphalt, momentarily stunned. My legs were wrapped around my bike, like "No, I can still make this work." I get up and start limping home. Ten feet away is a stranger taking out his trash. He doesn't joke; there's no inflection in his words. Motherfucking robot says, "You're lucky you're alive," and walks back to his house. Seriously? He was going to watch me die, apparently. Asshole. What ended up happening with your face?

            [–]Kr0niK 4 points5 points ago

            Not a lot happened. It looked a lot worse than it was. Just many many tiny cuts and little bits of stone stuck in my face and knuckles. I have a hard head. (I sat here for 5 minutes trying to make that last sentence not sound like it does, I failed)

              [–]Kypt 2 points3 points ago

              I did the exact same thing. I think I heard some one talking about a kid that was in a bike and another kid threw a stick and it got stuck on the wheel. I didn't hear the rest of it but as soon as I got home I wanted to know what happened...What happened was physics...physics happened.

                I stuck my foot in the fork thinking I'd be able to pull a cool trick where I stand on the front tire stopping all cool like that.

                Nope, stood on my face.

                [–]M83HUWD 2 points3 points ago

                I once was riding my bike down a steep hill and thought it would be cool to pit my arms in my shirt. My shirt was a bit small and I couldn't get my arms out by the time I got to the bottom. I crashed and scrapped up my chin. Good times!

                When I was little my father would take my brother and me to kinder garden on his bike; my little brother in a baby seat on the back and me sitting side saddle on the crossbar. One day, going downhill, I decided to see what would happen if I put my foot in the wheel.
                Somehow none of use were seriously hurt.

                [–]bahgheera 3 points4 points ago

                I can only imagine your dad's confusion and wonderment, while laying amongst the wreckage and carnage, at what happened. "What did I hit? There was nothing there!" he must have been saying to himself.

                [–]biggbuckz 1 point2 points ago

                I didn't have to do this because I had an older brother.

                [–]thedarklordkyp 1 point2 points ago

                That's similar to how I learned to not use my front brake, specially when approaching the top of a jump at high speeds.

                [–]Mr_Unagi 1 point2 points ago

                Me and my brother would make a game out of doing this to each other. It got out of hand when we were able to through sticks into the spokes like a spear.

                [–]blaya123 0 points1 point ago

                Did the same thing with a hockey stick going downhill, it was a bad time.

                [–]Aurilion 1 point2 points ago

                Also did this as a child, came off my bike via the handlebars and cracked my head open on the floor, my white Thunderbirds T-shirt was red in less than a minute, I really liked that T-shirt, such a shame. This comic is Wildly inaccurate.

                [–]Qw3rtyP0iuy 0 points1 point ago

                Someone did that to me when I was a kid and my eyebrows are still fucked.

                [–]Mattzlo 0 points1 point ago

                I did something like this I was trying to put together this old bike and I got it together and working but I didn't tighten the front wheel, it rode fine then I went to do a wheelie and as I lift up I just see the front wheel continue to roll and the front came down stuck in the ground i flipped over the handle bars and I ducked and rolled away as the bike frame came after me.

                [–]dgafuan 0 points1 point ago

                Yea i did that with my foot. I landed on my face and never attempted that again. Pavement is quite unpleasant..

                  I wish I knew that a few years ago when I burned my dick.

                  [–]will_at_work 11 points12 points ago

                  okay, I'll bite. How did you burn your dick? Curling iron-ing your pubic hair? cause it wasn't curly enough? or maybe straightening your pubic hair? or ironing the pants you were wearing? or like that scene in american pie... yeah that's probably it, I bet you put your dick in something too hot

                  [–]ImADouchebag 3 points4 points ago

                  It was an acid burn actually, I somehow managed to get some drain cleaner on there.

                  [–]buster2Xk 3 points4 points ago

                  You probably got it on your hands.

                  [–]ImADouchebag 9 points10 points ago

                  No, that would have burned my hands too. My theory is that someone put some drain cleaner in the toilet bowl. Then when I had to take a dump, as the turd hit the water it splashed some of it on my dick.

                  [–]buster2Xk 14 points15 points ago

                  The dreaded splashback just got seriouser.

                          As a kid I would have bike wars with other children in the neighborhood, were we would fashion bamboo poles, ride around and try and throw our poles into the front wheels of each other bikes, similar to jousting. Fun times.

                          Same. We also made sure to run over a pop can just right so it clung to the back of the spinning wheel, making it sound like we had motors.

                            I did this once accidently as a kid going fishing. Cruising down a huge hill in town and stuck the fishing pole in my front spoke. Ended up with a mild concussion from the curb and a dashed line scar up my calf from the bike sprocket. And was almost run over by a semi coming toward me.

                            Bonus - an ambulance ride was included!

                            In college I rode my bike to school. It wasn't very far, just like half a mile. But I road my bike past my roommate one day and he thought it would be funny to throw something at me. Problem was that he was just on a side walk and the only thing there was a downed branch from the forest. So he picks the branch up and tosses it towards me. It bounces off the street infront of me and then of course it comes straight at my front wheel. Goes it the spokes and the wheel stops instantly but of course the bike is still moving. I get thrown in front of the bike on to the street. Hit the pavement with my chin and then the rest of my body crumples into a heap. Then my roommate looks at me in shock like he couldn't believe it. I get up and turn around to go home cause I'm in pain and I'm not going to class now. Then he turns around and keeps going to class. Jerk.

                              The origin of this comes from a legal battle in Portland where a fixed gear rider was ticketed for not having a brake. The officer said that using the gear to stop was not good enough, and this statement was thrown in...

                              "If your client had a stick she could rub against her tire, you'd have a case. I don't believe the defense has convinced me to broaden the definition of a brake. I find the defendant guilty."

                              The day in court is detailed here: http://bikeportland.org/2006/07/28/judge-finds-fault-with-fixies-1727

                              I was riding a bike without using my hands when I was younger. And I hit something with one of my pedals, So I slipped off the seat down on the frame. and sort of hanging over the handlebars with my armpits where my hands are supposed to be. And then wobbled straight in to a bike rack....Good times.

                                As a kid (very stupid kid) my friends and I would intentionally play a similar game. There was a gravel circle road that we would ride our bikes as fast as we could and someone would stand at side of the road and try to javelin a stick into the spokes. If the stick didn't get into the spokes you won and you got to throw the stick the next time. There was only one successful attempt and surprisingly no one died. It can get quite boring in rural Iowa.

                                Embarrassing childhood moment here. I used to snorkel around nearby lakes looking for fishing lures and whatever else I could find. Was coasting downhill with my mask, snorkel and fins in-hand when I spotted three cute neighborhood girls hanging out at the local store. Naturally, I adjusted into a more cool pose on the bike...causing the snorkel to slip into the spokes.

                                Ass-over-elbows, roadrash spill right at the exact spot where the girls were chatting. Yeah. They stared in shocked horror as I scrambled to get back on the bike - peddling my bleeding, embarrassed self away in silence.

                                I have also succumbed to the temptation of doing this as a kid. I had a tennis ball in my spokes and I tried to kick it out while riding. My foot got stuck and I flew over the handlebars. I landed on my hands and managed not to break anything but I remember the pain so well. I was on the ground yelling and cursing and two elderly ladies in my neighborhood came running over to see if I was ok. I felt bad because I was lying their cursing up a storm.

                                Another time I ran into a parked car an landed on the hood. I don't think anyone saw me and I just got up and rode away fast.

                                Also I was once on my brothers handlebars and he hit a storm drain, the ones with the long slots, and we both went flying. I landed on my face and he landed on me. The whole side of my face was like sandpaper from the scraps. I think I was in kindergarten when that happened.

                                When I was young a kid shoved his arm in my bike spokes when I was riding along. The spoke cut right to the bone and I was thrown off the front of the bike.

                                It was a shitty day for me cause I had a scrape on my elbow and my fucking front tire was bent.

                                I did this a child. A bunch of us were riding bikes. I was off on my own and I was reaching forward with my foot to put it in the spokes. I liked the noise is was making.

                                I did this about 10 times when suddenly, my foot caught in the spoke and the fork (is that the right term?) and I went over the handlebars, landing on my back.

                                No one saw it and, being a kid, I wasn't hurt, so I got up and rode off.

                                When I was about 9 or 10, I was riding my bike around the neighborhood. I came across a piece of metal laying in the road, it was more like a wire, a really sturdy piece of flat wire. It had a curl on one end, so it was more or less shaped like a shepherds hook. I picked it up and was examining it, when it occured to me that it was similar to the oil dipstick I'd seen my dad taking out of the car not too long ago. So, I decided that it was my dipstick, and I slid it into a hole in the bracket of the front reflector on my bike. I jumped back on the bike and headed out, at a fairly high rate of speed, when I noticed the "dipstick" was swinging back and forth bouncing off the tire and just generally rattling around down there in the spokular region. But this was not interesting to me. So there I am, peddling along quickly when suddenly I realize that I am flying through the air. I remember seeing the handlebars pass beneath my body, but I had no idea why. Just as my tiny little brain is beginning to consider that something new is occurring here, the road ate my face.

                                After laying in the wreckage for a few minutes I regained my composure, anazlyzed the situation and figured out why, and after that day I knew that something in your spokes is definitely what I categorize as a bad thing.

                                I did that same thing one time only I did it in my car and I threw a grenade in my tire.

                                Did this with my leg not a stick. safe to say, my dad got hurt he was riding the bike.

                                I lost a front tooth doing this . . headfirst over the handlebars; landing on my front left incisor :(

                                Woohoo for being late to the party, but I'll tell my story anyway. When I was very young I lived at the bottom of a hill. Both of my older brothers on completely separate occasions rode down the hill, and stuck their foot in-between the tire and the front fork. Well, as you can imagine, when going down a hill on a bike, when the front tire stops suddenly the bike flips over. BOTH of them did this and landed on their backs. And BOTH of them still brag about it to this day, and try and claim credit for being the first to do it! I know what you're thinking (one guy that's reading this) they probably want to be first because they don't want to be the moron that wasn't content watching the first guy touch the fire to know it's hot. No, they want to credit for doing it first, because they still think it was awesome. I love my family.

                                You guys are going to laugh but I actually did this once.

                                I didn't crash, but it did stop me in my tracks and make me pull a stoppie.

                                one of the techniques used in bike wars.

                                Anyone else instantly reminded of Family Guy when Peter falls over and holds his knee saying "Ahhh.....Ahhhhhh" repeatdtly for an extremely long and painfully annoying amount of time.

                                once i ran over a beer can and it clamped around my front tire. exactly one-half rotation later the can jammed against my front fork like the tightest front brake ever invented and i was super-manning through the air, no longer attached to said bike. I landed in the grass on the side of the road, and somehow didn't even get hurt. lucky...

                                I'm crying laughing like a semi-retarded fool. I don't know why I find this so funny.

                                I did this as a kid, accidentally. I was riding downhill and was carrying a big stick because there were lots of stray dogs around that were pretty mean and I accidentally let the stick wander into the spokes of my front tire. I flipped over the handlebars and broke my arm. It sucked balls.

                                but the stick wouldn't hit you, it would just jam the wheel...

                                This should be on a t-shirt. Also, why is this not a t-shirt yet?

                                There was once during my childhood time, i rode a bike with an umbrella hang onto the handle. Somehow, the umbrella accidentally slip into the spoke and i did a flip. Ended up with torn clothe and bruises

                                i recently did this by accident carrying a tripod in my hand. I flipped over my bike and broke both of my elbows. Not gonna do that again
