Wow. Really?

By go down the street, it took the curve, was peddling, avoided the pothole in the middle of the road... it moved.

Not the straight-line you were thinking that every kid did by pushing their bike from behind and letting momentum push it forward.

Seems that I have to go into detail to point out the very obvious that this wasn't a typical situation. I thought it was implicit.

With you, I see that it wasn't.

I hope that you understand... this wasn't typical. Thus my post about it in this thread alongside remarkable things I've seen.

Sorry I didn't take into concept that you'd not be able to catch that obvious collection of "similar things"... just like on Sesame Street.

One of the kids is doing the same thing...

Yeah I wasn't sure gerbick that it wasn't something more... But it's fun to ghost ride your bike anyways.

When i was 6 i remember playing hide and seek with friends and i saw the boy next door tossing off in the bushes lol. Never looked at him the same way again.
