I am in David Letterman's city apartment. He has set up another of those stupid human trick performances and I am part
of a group of people on a huge multi-tandem bike trying to operate it without touching our feet to the floor. I am third or
fourth from the front. A man, gymnast-like, sits in the front and directs things. The first bicyclist behind him is a woman and
she has to share the pedals with him without interrupting the pedaling. The man takes his feet off the pedals
and the woman takes over and immediately continues to pedal. It looks difficult and I look down to see how I will
manage to do it when it is my turn. Some people have to crawl into awkward positions in order to reach the pedals and it
all takes place in silence. The man in front is giving encouraging smiles. I wonder how we all keep our balance.
Nothing seems to be supporting the bike, and it is not visibly moving even if we are pedaling.
