Why This Joke Works

'Vicious cycle' is an idiom for a self-reinforcing negative loop, but a bicycle is literally a cycle — so getting hit by a bike repeatedly is a vicious cycle both metaphorically AND mechanically.

🎤 How to Tell This Joke

Ask with genuine concern for this man's wellbeing, then deliver 'vicious cycle' with clinical assessment of both his physics problem and his life circumstance.

Perfect for:

  • On a bike path when discussing safe cycling habits
  • When someone describes a repetitive pattern they can't escape
  • During a spinning class when someone gets frustrated with the equipment
