Forget about the bicycle for a second.The guy is saying that there are probably all kinds of things in our lives similar to this, we should keep an eye out

So this is a long winded "Think outside the box." Except that the anecdote used is actually a poor solution.

Maybe I am just old, do people really need a PSA for this? I guess not everybody grew up watching MacGuyver.
