Gyroscopic Effects on Bicycle wheels. Demo from Mr. Herbert’s Science Class.

Gyroscopic Effects on Bicycle wheels. Demo from Mr. Herbert's Science Class.
Challenging my buddy Jeff to balance a bicycle wheel (at the axle on his finger), had him perplexed till I showed him how. In this simple gyroscopic experiment, I demonstrate how gyros work on a much more visible size than most gyros, making it a perfect science class experiment. It also demonstrates the theory that most bicycles may knife edge a bit to the left at speed, however they will also get more gyroscopically stable with that speed. The pull however is slight and you would not notice it. This gyroscopic effect is prevalent on all vehicles with wheels.
My Dad ( a science and Math teacher in his lifetime) showed me this experiment when I was 9 years old. I never forgot it and pass it on in his honor. Thanks Dad.
