few years ago i saw something like this on a tv show called brainiac, the question was "will a (wheel spoke clicker product) make your bike faster?"
the kid who asked this question got the chance to test it out for him self on the show. he did 1 lap with out the product and the 2nd lap with it. Wouldn't you know he done it quicker with the clicker attached to his bike.
He broke the laws of physics!!!!!

i use to clip thick gauge cardboard with clothes pegs to my bike when i was 10.

Then again, when i was 13 me and a mate built bike trailers (this is when i learnt how to stick weld) for our bikes and pimped them out with a banging sound system. i mean i had a 12" kicker sub, some 800w amp, pioneer 2 way speakers, sony mp3 HU. my mate had something similar.

ha- i built a bike trailer for my mt. bike and had my 20" race bike on the back. We would ride to the bike trails and then i would unload my bike and race it around. Not much has changed.

Did you use batteries, or an extension cord?
