According to this breaking news story from the KC Star, a couple was seriously injured after jumping off the Lewis & Clark Viaduct during a police chase. They apparently stole a car, drove it to the bridge under pursuit from the fuzz, and then jumped off. Unbeknownst to them, the perfect getaway vehicle was within reach. Just under the bridge they jumped off is a walkway overlooking the intersection of the Kansas and Missoura rivers. 
At the beginning of the walkway is this fanciful bicycle, which looks like it is stuck to the gate, but will actually come free and travel unbelievably fast if you just say the magic word (Sacajawea). So if any of you are out committing felony theft in KCK and need a safer, more efficient escape route, you'll know what to do.
