The silver-gold triathlon bike was sitting in Kris‘s dining room next to the door. It had no kickstand,so he had wedged
the front tire in between two bookshelves so that the bike would stand upright. Both tires were flat. Dust covered the bike.
However,no household spiders had spun a web yet. He remembered that last time he rode it was on November 13th,2010.
It was Sunday. Sunset was still almost two hours away. The temperature had been 38 at noon, but had dropped to about 28
degrees. Kris had spent Saturday and most of Sunday cleaning up his house. The termite inspector was coming on Monday.
Kris wanted the inspector to be able to inspect without tripping over boxes,books,bikes, and kayak gear.
Kris was going to reward himself with a late afternoon bicycle ride. He enjoyed riding through his neighborhood with its
many beautiful houses, yards, birds, birdhouses,and trees. But first , he had to inflate both bike tires. He got out a hand
air pump he bought at a thrift shop for only $2. The pump adapter did not fit onto the bike‘s tire.
He looked for his new pump, the one that had cost $40. It had all the bells and whistles. It was a beauty. Of course,
Kris couldn‘t find it.
The bike was now ready to ride. Kris wast about to go for a ride. However, he felt a little tired. Plus, he was hungry after
drinking nine sodas. In fact, it looked like it was getting too dark and cold for a long ride. After all, there is always tomorrow,
he thought as he opened the refrigerator door. The chilled air felt good.
