Quoted: In the Single Speed World Championship bicycle race, riders are encouraged to wear costumes and not take the race too seriously. Some racers wore Boy Scout uniforms. Others wore pajamas, a full-body neon skinsuit, bunny ears or fishnet tights. Men willing to do the entire race in briefs received special prizes. Hecklers along the course route threw beer cans and shouted insults.

1 FaverQuoted: A bike remains upright when it is steered so that the ground reaction forces exactly balance all the other forces it experiences, such as gravitational, inertial or centrifugal if in a turn, and aerodynamic if in a crosswind.[4] Steering may be supplied by a rider or, under certain circumstances, by the bike itself. This self-stability is generated by a combination of several effects that depend on the geometry, mass distribution, and forward speed of the bike.
