Moving ground
We Dutch love to ride our bicycles. Even - or especially - when we want to get home leaving the pub. At one of these occasions I discovered a new kind of perception. Normally we fix our eyes on the near distance (1). If you let your eyes travel closer (2) to your bike by bending your head you will reach a point (4) of no control. Just before that point is a space (3) - which I consider personal for each of us - in which it seems as if the floor is moving. It feels like floating. There is one major consideration for this experience: don`t try it on roads less travelled and keep in mind there can always be an obstacle ahead.
