yesterday.......
I went to see my brother....and I actually thought to mention the bike he said he had for me....
he got it out of the shed....put air in the tires....greased the chain...and told me to give it a try....
I hadnt been on a bike in some 20 years...(not since my cousins bikes brakes failed on me going down a hill). I told him this and he said "dont worry....you never forget".
When I was a kid I literally lived on my bike...it was freedom...like your first car...
So....I hopped on....started down the street (incidentally, the same street I first learned to ride my bike on as a kid) wobbly at first...then building confidence as I went along....the brakes were tricky...my first (and only) bike had the brakes where you just went back on the pedals....but....by the time I got home I felt like I was 10 again and couldnt stop smiling.......
