First Bike Ride


    I remember the first time I rode a bicycle by myself.  I was probably five or six years old, and was using my older sister's bike, a big black, clunky thing.

    I was on a slight downhill slope, so I didn't need to pedal.  It was a girl's bike, so I knew I could easily jump off the pedals and onto the ground to stop myself anytime.

    The thrill of moving without walking/running was utter ecstasy, and has lasted an entire lifetime.
