Dear dear dear.
What happened here?
Poor cyclist.
Was he stopped?
Did he topple off?
Was he on autopilot?
We shall never know.
Not Top Dog now, is he?
This bicycle has been here, thrust through the back wall of Middle Parks Farm near Ripon, since the Tour de France came to Yorkshire in 2014.
From Pyrenees to Pennines 
Brilliant! 🙂 🙂 Much better than topiary!

How that bike was introduced into the wall (the other half is on the other side) I’ll never know.

Haha! Thanks, This bike appears on a favourite walk, nowhere near the actual road the cyclists use, and it makes me laugh every time.

Dear, dear, dear indeed. The half-bike in the wall is, unfortunately for your text, a woman’s – you can tell by the frame. So it’s a half-biked idea, really. Now had you asked me first, before publishing, ……… Love M*.*

Ah well. You know me. A bike is a bike is a bike. And best avoided at all costs. xxx

Well this is quite the dilemma for the one who was riding it. 😳 Nice poem to go along with it.

Such wonderful topics (see what I did there?) today. You are certainly in top form, and I love the poem! I think we are all getting a little stir crazy and we are not even half way through… 🤪

What is the word for a hat trick when it’s a foursome? Perhaps too few football players have scored one.

2014? Has it been that long? I recall you writing about the Tour de France after you moved home. Oh my!
