Saw this posted in another newsgroup and thought it might get a laugh here.
Sorry to everyone who has already seen it:

"This revolutionary frame comes in two pieces, and features new IMS
(Independent Magnetic Suspension) technology from Germany. Apparently the
frame is magnetic, and the power of attraction and repulsion keeps
everything upright. Here is a picture of this frame being used in race
conditions for the first time. You need to look very closely to appreciate
the mystery and marvel of this technology."
Obviously a joke as well, but good for a laugh the first time you see it.

If you enjoyed that picture, you should check the ones with the "invisible" bikes:

More of them (with a "story") are listed here:

(the link apparently has bandwidth restrictions, so try later if it doesn't work)
Definitely photoshop, but still funny.

With apologies to those who already saw them.
