Surfing the Rat

My friend had an unfortunate experience biking to work in Brooklyn one early morning, when a rat decided to make a break for it but tragically collided with his front tire, jamming itself in between rubber and concrete for a few terrifying seconds. After some horrible squealing and squeaking, the rat shot out from under his tire and my friend could continue on to work, shaken no doubt, but eager to tell his tale. And that is where, "Surfing the Rat" was born.
