Gyro (pronounced gee-roh, not guy-row), is a greek sandwich that predates the Gordita by a few centuries. Take some of the best foodstuffs on the planet in the form of spiced, rotisserie grilled lamb, thinly sliced onions and fresh, ripe tomatoes, cover the whole thing with the creamy goodness of tsaziki (yogurt, cucumber and garlic sauce), add some shredded lettuce or crumbled feta cheese(entirely optional) and wrap the tasty mess in a warm pita. Consume with vigor.

Availible in malls, roadside carts, and greek delis... if you haven't had one (and have no strong objection to the above listed ingredients), go, get one, now!

You'll never go to taco bell for a gordita again.

Part attached to a bike to prevent brakelines from twisting around the stem during barspins. Is attached above the stem when the brakes are pulled they lift the top ring of the gyro which lifts the bottom ring and then the pull is transferred back to the brakes. However because the top ring isn't actually attached to the bottom ring the bottom brake lines don't spin with the top lines so they don't get twisted.
