The Bouncing Bicycle.....

[truth4me]

There is more to the story but will stick to above topic. I've got a bad hip and riding a bike helps so much where I can get places without pounding the pavement. I'm in Walmart looking at bicycle's and this one caught my eye.It was a 26 inch purple bike and I kept looking at it deciding to buy it or not.All of a sudden the front end started bouncing up and down! So I got the bike and bought it and it has turned out to be the best one I've had yet. Now could Walmart have rigged it to make it jump? sure but according to Walmart employees they have no such marketing tool.After looking at the rack closely I can't see how they "rigged" it plus the other Walmarts in town have the same rack a bar for each bike holding the bikes down. Could not see any sensors or wires or anything to make it jump. So did it bounce on it's on ? I BELIEVE it did I mean I can't prove to anyone but I BELIEVE it did......p.s bicycles have something to do with my past lives IMHO.....

Like a puppy in the pet shop. Jumping to get your attention and wanting to be taken home. :)

Have you by chance read the book "IT" by Stephen King?
There is a very special bicycle in the book, named "Silver" --
Thanks to this bicycle, one of the protagonists is able to save the lives of a childhood friend, and later, his wife.

The idea was that all the good times, all the good energy, that had been put into this silver bike,
would some day reflect back out and touch someone else...



Good travels with your Purple bike :)
