View ClipAn incredible, easy to do, multiple selection routine with an incredible, NO PALM, signed card to pocket ending! This trick will make you look like a master sleight of hand artist!
Effect
Three cards are freely selected (no force), signed and returned to the deck. The Magician now shows a Bicycle Joker and states that it has been specially trained to do the Magic.
The Joker is placed in the Magician's back pocket and with a Magical gesture, reappears face-up in the face down deck, right next to the first selection.
The Joker is then placed back in the Magician's pocket for a second time and the deck is spread to show that there are no face-up cards. Then once again, the Joker reappears face up in the facedown deck, right next to selection number two.
The Joker is removed for a final time, but this time, fails to reappear in the deck... the Magician reaches into his pocket and brings out the Joker, only to find that the reason he did not return is because he has fallen off his bike! The Magician makes a final Magical gesture and with an empty hand, reaches into his pocket and removes the final signed selection!
NO DIFFICULT SLEIGHT OF HAND! ENDS CLEAN! NO PALMING! QUICK RESET! INCLUDES SPECIALLY PRINTED CUSTOM BICYCLE CARDS AND INSTRUCTIONAL DVD!

We've all familiar with the bullet points in magic advertising:
"No Difficult Sleight of Hand!"
"Ends Clean!"
"No Palming!"
"Quick Reset!"
This usually means one of two things: either the effect sucks or it's a blatant lie.
Such is not the case with Trick Cyclist. The effect is strong. The premise and routine are interesting. The props are top-quality. Oh, and they hit all of the claims above, as well (as advertised on the packaging).
Even the "card to pocket" kicker ending doesn't require palming. The audience actually sees you put the card in your pocket in plain view. Of course, they don't realize it's the chosen card...
As I watched the performance, I found myself daydreaming about how I might add this to my repertoire. It was surprisingly easy to come up with something that fit with my personality. Of course, the routine on the DVD is perfectly fine. Just know that you've got a lot of options with the feke supplied with the DVD.
