Offering your friend&#8217;s carbon road bike at an online second-hand shop for 199 euros and watching him decline 100 calls per minute.<\/p>\n<p>2. Pouring soda into his or her water bottle and waiting for a smaller version of the Yellowstone park geyser after the slightest shake.<\/p>\n<p>3. Touching the air valve of your friend&#8217;s front wheel while hissing loudly to imitate the sound of leaking air. Your friend won\u2019t be happy with you thinking you let the air out of their tube.<\/p>\n<p>4. Lock your friend&#8217;s bike and leave just to observe their astonishment from afar after they find out they cannot ride away.<\/p>\n<p>5. Calling them that a local newspaper is interested in writing a feature about their cycling career.<\/p>\n<p>6. Hiding a tiny piece of delicate French cheese into the rear pocket of their jersey a few days before April 1 just to wait for the monumental smell caused by the fermentation process.<\/p>\n<p>7. Gearing down the rear derailleur after they left the bike for a moment and enjoying their clumsy start when he or she gets back on the bike.<\/p>\n<p>8. Telling your friends that e-bikes were officially allowed on this year&#8217;s Tour de France.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Some pranks are even more embarrassing than Chris Rock making jokes on account of Jada Smith during the latest Oscars [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":99,"featured_media":188892,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[334],"tags":[6232,2668,6233,6234],"global-categories":[3366],"class_list":["post-188891","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-socialising-and-culture","tag-april-fools-day","tag-cycling-fun","tag-cycling-pranks","tag-pranks-for-fools-day","global-categories-cycling"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v25.3 (Yoast SEO v25.9) - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>8 Cycling Pranks for April Fool&#039;s Day - We Love Cycling Magazine<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Some pranks are even more embarrassing than Chris Rock making jokes on account of Jada Smith during the latest Oscars night.
