27 Tricky Riddles That Could Even Stump A Bridge-Dwelling Troll

“A man was found dead in a room with 53 bicycles, how did he die?”

This riddle is posed by elementary school teachers, desperate parents and fairy-tale tricksters alike, and its implications are equally endless and macabre. 

Did he get run over during an indoor cycling competition? 

Did he try — and fail — at robbing disgraced cyclist/alleged strip-club menace Lance Armstrong? 

Did he somehow slip into the timeline of 2010’s Rubber, where seemingly sentient car tires — and now bikes! — can enact random acts of meaningless violence on those unlucky enough to find themselves in their path? 

Fortunately, the answer to all these questions is a resounding no — the real, much more feasible solution lies in the word “bicycle.”   

There are plenty more head-scratchers where that came from. Whether it’s about bus drivers’ names or the suspicious details of a cowboy’s travel itinerary, here are more tricky riddles that could even stump a bridge-dwelling troll.
