A Great Mystery Solved
24 Aug ’05

This is not mysterious at all!


It obvious to me that the archaeologists who dug up this mysterious wooden object did not ride their bicycles to the dig. It is as clear as day to me what this is.

It is a pedal.

The Norse used the most fuel efficient mode transportation as yet devised by man: a bicycle. They probably took the bikes back to Greenland when they left, which is why they’ve not found more bits.
