I will provide an example of what you are talking about. Lance said to himself, "I hope Astana won't be pissed that I'm invading on their team."

Two nerds were talking and one said to the other, "Yesterday, a woman rode her bike up to me, threw her bike on the ground, took all her clothes off, and said 'Take what you want!' so I took the bike."
The other replied, "Good choice. The clothes probably wouldn't have fit you."

You crash on a descent doing 50 MPH, suffering numerous cuts, scrapes, breaks, and contusions, and your first words upon regaining consciousness are..... How's my bike?

A few examples...
When I am walking down the street and all of a sudden I touch my head and say damn I forgot my helmet- of course a millisecond prior to realizing I am not on my bike.
I borrowed my friends car (I don't own one) and was amazed at how quickly it climbed up hills.

I have a friend who crashed at very high speed on a motorcycle. He broke just about anything that could be broken, and was in a coma for several days. His very first words upon coming out of the coma were "How's my bike?"
