Dad rides his bike to work a lot. He leaves in the morning when it is dark and sometimes he doesn't ride home until dark. But no worries - he has a bike head light and tail light. But yesterday things DID NOT go well. As he was at 39th and Dunlap he attempted to get onto a sidewalk and the edge caught his wheel and down he went. He was OK but the head light did not fare so well. It was in pieces. So he called for a rescue vehicle to pick him up. That was me!
This morning though, he was determined to ride his bike in to work again. So with a little engineer ingenuity he attached his brand new birthday present - flashlight - to his handlebars. He remembered, "helmet on for safety". He even wore his specialty biking shorts with padded rear end for his rear end (these were a birthday gift from 2 or 3 years ago that he never used) and off he went. I hope tonight he doesn't experience another Bike Bash!

haha. He is putting your birthday presents to good use! Even if it took 2 or 3 years!
