Actually, it's a pretty cool hack, even to the name of the song and how they intended to implement it (with grooves).

I do like puns and good hacks.

Of course, taxpayer dollars should never fund it.

Get some aging hippie to put his trust fund dollars into it, or forgetaboutit.

Indeed. Maybe some private arts foundation (no government grants) could do it. You need a relatively slow song, so the front and rear tires don’t create a problem. Maybe you can use the typical bike wheel base to create something like a round.

But the first that came to mind was “Flight of the Bumblebee.” Actually, even though it was about footracing, “Chariots of fire” would be interesting. The best would focus on the rhythmic, as opposed to melodic, and even less likely harmonic. I’d ride in the “drum solo” lane, with a transcription of Joe Morello’s wonderful solo on Brubeck’s Take Five.

Even classic drumline riffs going back to Sousa and before would be a joy to ride over.

The next step (if you really wanted to peddle pedaling) is to have a programmable machine with bumps that can rise and fall, so you can get a different musical piece every day, or even a different piece for every rider, or even one that augments the iPod the rider shouldn’t be listening to.

Of course, the good stuff requires a unicycle.

This could also be used for those wake up strip when a highway ends.

One more thought. If you had parallel lanes, you could have quartets in harmony for riders keeping pace with each other. Now, I’m thinking Bach.
