My wife prefers mans bikes but we saw this woman's Schwinn in a Goodwill store years ago, $5 as I recall. She wanted to throw it away last year, in red dirt part of basement of her parents house which she sold.
I bring it here, clean it up, lube, new tires. I use it to ride to our mailbox. Today it's freezing but the paved road we live off of there's no traffic so I take a ride. All at once my right foot hurts like h***. My tennis shoe laces somehow caught, winding around the petal at the crank!
I couldn't pedal backwards because of the coaster brake. Anything I did made it worse. I couldn't get the shoe off and no knife. Then I thought about Captain Ahab, and I was now strapped to Moby Dick! That was about the time in struggling I fell over into some thick bushes, bike and all. Someday I thought someone would find a tanglement of skeleton, bike and heavy clothes.
Finally I managed to get just enough slack to get my laces untangled.
Just call me Ishmael!
