Does the size and damage caused by this small explosive device justify calling it a "bombing"? Or does that fear-provoking term just look more exciting on web and newspaper headlines? What would you call it? There was a bomb. It was placed and it exploded. Seems pretty appropriate. Do people have to be injured for it be a bomb?

Pedi is a prefix for foot. As in pedicure. Pedal bomber would work.

How funny: that's the exact same bike I got for my bar mitzvah (20+ years ago), only blue instead of black. Haven't seen one of them around in years. (Yes, I realize this adds basically nothing to the conversation. So far rtd2101 still wins the thread.)
