    Question 1: 5. Truth is a wheel; a freewheel can have its pawls brazed shut; a false flat will take the wind out of your legs; and a false positive can still get you banned — but used is used.
    Question 2: Because their hearts are heavy.
    Question 3: He’ll lose his shirt?
    Bonus: four.

    a wheel can be untrue true
    a freewheel can be broken true
    a flat can be true hmm truly
    a positive can be good, true
    a used bike cannot be mint, a used bike can be messed up, not sure what the opposite is.

    cyclists mount their bikes on the left to avoid the crank

    if lance doesn’t wear pink
    a miracle will have happened.

    no idea for the bonus question
