Bikes Are For Everyone
All jokes aside
Bikes are for everyone.
Well, my ass disagrees right now
But he’ll come around in a week or so.
My ex took me to a bike shop sophomore year of college
Because we got an apartment off campus
That required commuting. Bikes were the answer
I got the cheapest model trek in the store which
As you know
Is 500x more expensive than a Walmart toy.
I think it was the trek 820, which
The guy at the store called a kids bike.
Lmfao— that “kids bike”
Changed my whole life.
I was able to bop around so much faster
Than with feet on the ground.
She got herself some fancy hybrid style
Road mountain extravaganza
And proceeded to treat me and my bike
Like shit
For the next three years
Because that’s how she treats
Absolutely everyone and everything.
Hindsight has taught me not to take it
Personally.
Anyway— she had this
Big, fancy expensive ass hybrid ass bike
I couldn’t get on it even to see what it was like!
So tall, so terrifying.
Now
I got meself
One of dem
Now I’m high rollin
Now I’m fast
Now I’m goin up the hills
Ass and all
I just
If I could do one thing
It would be to go back in time
And try to give myself
A much, much bigger ego.
That’s the best things anyone can do for themselves.
Oh, and get a nice bike
That makes you feel free, inside and out.
Try and live a life that lets you take your
Feet off the ground.
