Two questions Hello, I've got two questions. 1. Is there any mistake in this sentence? "I had been walking along the road for ten minutes when someone on the bicycle bumped into me." With "on the bicycle" I mean "on his bicycle". 2. Can I say "I saw terrible things in sleep last night." instead of "I saw terrible things in my sleep last night."?

In number 1 it should either be "on a bicycle" or "on his bicycle". "I saw terrible things in sleep" doesn't sound natural. the second option is correct.

You could either say "on his bicycle" "on a bicycle" or "on their bicycle" You could say "I saw terrible things in my sleep last night" or "I saw terrible things while I was sleeping last night"
