One day a customs officer at the U.S.–Mexico border noticed that a man was coming across on a bicycle with two small sacks tied to the handlebars. Suspicious, he asked the man to open the sacks, but they contained nothing but sand. This went on every day for months. Each time, the customs officer would stop the man on the bicycle and ask him to open the sacks, but they were always filled with nothing but sand. A few years later, the customs officer retired and moved down to Tijuana. One day he ran into the cyclist in a restaurant and they started chatting. “So, come on,” the customs officer said, “we both know you were smuggling something. I swear I won’t tell anyone. What was it?” The other man smiled and said, “Bicycles.”
