Google Calendar's full text search only returns exact matches on  
words. It doesn't do pluralization or stemming. When you create an  
event "bicycles" and search for "bicycle" no events are returned and  
vice-versa.  Similarly with verb forms, if you create an event  
"swimming" and search for "swim" and you don't get any results.

This behavior is within the range of possibilities for full text search.
