Conciousness (the mind, speaking broadly) is composed of psyquical events, whiles the universe (the cosmos, speaking broadly) is composed of physical events. Any rule underlying physical events does not apply to psyquical events, and vice versa. The increase of entropy (disorder) is rule for physical events. That is why consciousness can be in contradiction with the law of increase of entropy; that it isn't a psyquical rule. That is why if you take consciousness into account in the case of the bycicle, the rule of entropy will be broken for you are know in the realm of the psyquical-physical events scheme.
