    I sympathize with Sappy. But now that I've grown old, my balance issues
    are such that I barely dare ride. And if I buy a grown-up tricycle, I
    start being unable to securely park it. (Besides, as Sappy should know
    by now, there's no substitute for the riding the real thing.)

    But I appreciate Sappy's need to bring a banana for scale. That's a
    running joke in some parts of the Internet. (I don't think in this part
    of the Usenet, I can include the banana.)
