The trivia on the confusion needed to be corrected itself, it seemed to imply at first read that the incorrect lyrics were the proper, so I switched the wording to be more suited. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.142.130.20 ( talk) 06:16, 2 May 2006 (UTC)
The one with the bicycle race is the most appropriate as it was the most notable at the time. -- evrik ( talk) 16:43, 4 April 2007 (UTC)
If two covers were used they should both be shown. Danceswithzerglings ( talk) 06:41, 5 December 2009 (UTC)
Image:Bicycle fat.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in Wikipedia articles constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
If there is other other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. BetacommandBot 01:27, 1 June 2007 (UTC)
Isn`t the song about LSD? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LSD#Bicycle_day — Preceding unsigned comment added by Naat~enwiki ( talk • contribs) 10:52, 25 March 2009 (UTC)
The song is full of humorous political and cultural references which should probably be mentioned Danceswithzerglings ( talk) 06:41, 5 December 2009 (UTC)
Just curious this song is about. It has a lot of pop culture references from the day. -- 70.167.58.6 ( talk) 21:25, 22 April 2009 (UTC)
There should probably be a redirect from "I want to ride my bicycle" to here or something, because that's what I thought the song was called and probably what anyone who isn't a queen fan would think the song was called. 118.208.140.3 ( talk) 14:01, 27 July 2009 (UTC)
I agreed with this comment, that is how I searched for it as well and found nothing. I had to look through each Queen Album until I found it. I'm a queen fan but not a hardcore one (In other words I Just listen to them on the radio and enjoy their songs but don't go out of my way to research them normally) A redirect from "I want to ride my bicycle" would probably help a lot of people out, I would do it if I knew how ;) Also my wife has stated that it is a well known fact that "I want to ride my bicycle" was Mercury’s way of saying he wanted to be gay openly in public and "ride his bicycle" which she states is another way to say make love to a male Has ANYONE else ever heard this?!!? I think she is insane and I can't find any reference to it any where on the internets. 205.145.64.64 ( talk) 22:44, 27 August 2009 (UTC)Serondal
Hi. I just added a redirect at I want to ride my bicycle. Click here to see how it's done. Danceswithzerglings ( talk) 07:56, 5 December 2009 (UTC)
There used to be a lot of perfectly relevant information in this article. Why remove it? I cannot be arsed to take the time to reinstate it for you people to hack it back to nothing again for reasons only known to yourselves. Decampos ( talk) 23:49, 26 October 2010 (UTC)
A "Bike" or "Village bicycle" is common British slang for a woman who sleeps around a lot, and from my own anecdotal experience, is what the song is generally believed to refer to. Unfortunately, I can't find any specific sources to back this up - probably because the euphemism was lost on the dominating American media.
