BSNYC Friday 10 Hours Of Funny Cat Videos, Plus The Occasional Graphic Video Of Cat Death By Misadventure!

According to my calendar, it's been 16 years since I've administered a quiz.  Therefore, in the interest of keeping flabby brains from turning completely to mush, I'm going to get right to it forthwith--though before I do, Stevil Kinevil of All Hail The Black Market is having an art show next month and he wants you to know about it, and if Stevil Kinevil wants you to know about it then I want you to know about it:

That's just how it works:

According to his Internet, it's "the first...show comprised of work by cyclists that has nothing to do with bikes," so there you go.

I like the sound of that, since most bike art tends to be pretty corny, and probably the corniest bike art of all is tattoo bike art, to wit:

And ipso facto:

And case in point:

(Uh, everybody knows the bottom bracket spindle of a bicycle tramp stamp should be centered directly above the gluteal cleft.)

By the way, if you do insist on getting a bike tattoo, at the very least you should avoid component branding:

And of course professional cyclists:

Since both components and pro cyclists have a way of failing over time.

Though I suppose in the worst case scenario you can correct them:

That's something you'll never regret.

And now, I'm pleased to present you with a quiz.  As always, study the item, think, and click on your answer.  If you're right you'll know, and if you're wrong you'll see why you need a velomobile.

Thanks very much for reading, ride safe, and try not to get any cats stuck in your drivetrain.
