Hello all.
I'm fairly new to Sleuth and I thought I might share a little hobby of mine with you all. Here's something for that sad moment when the mysteries of the day are all done.

Thousands lay up gold within this house,
but no man made it.
Spears past counting guard this house,
but no man wards it.
What is it?

Are the bicycles complete, ie not in pieces?
Have the bicycles fallen over?

Serges,

Sorry about ruining your riddle for everyone. I was half asleep when I read it and didn't realize you wanted people to be guessing on line.

To make up for it, here's one:

A man and woman were driving along a road. The man saw a sign and then shot the woman. Why?

This is also a lateral thinking puzzle and I will entertain "yes" and "no" questions. It is a tough one and if you want the answer, just PM me.

*magically waves moderator pole and un-ruins the bicycle thing*

Yay moderator pole!

Bill: YES, the bicycles are complete. NO they haven't fallen over.

Serges: Are they actually bicycles?

Barry: was the sign text? Was it graphic?

Bill: the sign was not text nor was it graphic.

Bill: You'll have to rephrase your question, I'm afraid...

Barry: Was the sign inside the vehicle? Was it a sign more in the figurative sense (sign from God) than the literal sense (sign for IHOP)?

Serges: Yes, the sign was inside the vehicle. No, it was not a sign from God.

Did he shoot her with a gun or similar weapon?
Does who was driving make a difference?
