Mark's friend, Liam, has one of those balance bikes: no pedals, just meant to help little kids learn to balance on a bicycle. Liam is great at it and Mark steals his little bike often. Merril looked around at Target and WalMart to see if he could get one but they didn't have any. I've heard they come out around Christmas and thought it would be the best present for him. Merril was on a mission because the nice weather has been holding on forever this year. By Christmas, it would be cold. He posted on the online yard sale that he was looking for a used one and someone commented that they were just about to list this one:
It's a Honda-edition Strider bike in great condition! Strider bikes are the original and pricey ones! There are lots of knock offs but he got an original for $20. They're usually around $100. Score!
Mark and Liam have been racing all morning.
Thanks for not listening to me Merril!
