A cargo plane carrying bicycles flying over the house leaked and dropped 53 of them on the man.

**Amethyst Star** · 08-07-2004 04:11 AM

Nope... Feel free to ask questions.

**Evanescent** · 08-07-2004 04:12 AM

It was a triathalon. There were 53 of them in the race and the mans house was the switching point. The man was brutataly ran over as the autopsy will show.

**Umbrasquall** · 08-07-2004 04:12 AM

Ok how is everything arranged? Bikes/man/chairs.

**Evanescent** · 08-07-2004 04:14 AM

No! I already answered it!

**Amethyst Star** · 08-07-2004 04:15 AM

The arrangement doesn't really matter. Try to examine the meaning of the words. There's one in particular that's a key.

this one deosnt work as well when typed out you know...

**Amethyst Star** · 08-07-2004 04:19 AM

Do you know the answer werburn? It works fine typed out, at least when you've got ppl who don't always know quite how to look for certain key things.

Ok he was a tester of sorts. He tests products. He has to test each and every product for some stupid reason. He dies of exhaustion.

bicyclist stampede?

**Scwigglie** · 08-07-2004 04:25 AM

Erm.. he got crushed by all the bikes and crap in the room, because that particular room was small and couldn't fit the bikes in?

By the way, after this one's over, I say we all take a break from Riddles.. I mean, today there were like 50 of them!

**Amethyst Star** · 08-07-2004 04:29 AM

Nope....no bike stampede or crushings. But you're focusing on the right word. Now go context.

(Okay, I'll break from riddles)

**Evanescent** · 08-07-2004 04:31 AM

Did someone come in and dump the bikes there and the owner said he couldn't so the guy picked up a chair and opened a can.

**Amethyst Star** · 08-07-2004 04:32 AM

He was not crushed. Try thinking about the most important question starters, "Who" "What" "Where" "When" "Why?" Not all of them are pertinent, but at least 2 are. Don't just take your first guesses.

**Scwigglie** · 08-07-2004 04:33 AM

Okay. Is there a reason that "Bicycles" is capilatized in the described situation? Does the number of bikes have anything to do with the number of chairs? Did the bikes somehow kill the man, or help kill the man?

**Evanescent** · 08-07-2004 04:34 AM

Ok heres one.

WHAT IS THE ANSWER TO THIS RIDDLE?

**Scwigglie** · 08-07-2004 04:35 AM

Are we allowed to ask only yes and no questions, or something more direct?

asdjfhasdf!!

Are the Bicycles actual every-day bikes?

Are the chairs or table significant?

Did the dead man know these bikes would be in the room when he came in? (When he was alive, obviously)
