DESCRIPTION:Andy Ruina\, Cornell University \nAbstract You can balance a
  bike with hands on the handlebars. Or off. And\, surprising if you haven'
 t seen it\, a bike can balance itself\, with no person touching it. When v
 iewed from the back\, a bicycle looks like a stick balanced on end. If it 
 tips a little\, gravity pulls it down more. \nA bike should 'want' to fal
 l over\, but why doesn't it? There are famous popular theories going back 
 over 100 years\, some by famous people. Maybe\, the spinning wheels are li
 ke a top or gyroscope? Maybe it's the steering geometry?\n
