Speaker 1: Welcome to them, Christian No Common Show.
Speaker 2: Podcast yesterday run about midday.
Speaker 3: I was waiting for my outside of coffee shops, waiting
Speaker 3: for my chai late, because that's how I roll.
Speaker 2: Pretty wild and dangerous. Guy.
Speaker 3: When I was doing the show, I was watching these
Speaker 3: four young lads, right, we're just going up and down
Speaker 3: the pavement by this sort of parade of shops, and
Speaker 3: they were that's what it is, that's what it's to
Speaker 3: be happy. They were on their bikes, right, and they
Speaker 3: were suggling up and down and trying to do various
Speaker 3: bunny hops and stuff like that. One that was going,
Speaker 3: I just can't get enough air. I can't get high enough.
Speaker 3: It's a carbon fiber bike.
Speaker 2: It should do.
Speaker 3: And it was really troubling him, you know. And I
Speaker 3: was like looking at it, and I couldn't stop looking
Speaker 3: at them. Just I wanted to go and get my
Speaker 3: bike right and go where we go get. It's gonna
Speaker 3: mess some stuff up, guy, it's gonna.
Speaker 2: Kick over a wheeling men.
Speaker 3: I'm around an old man at fifty two, you are man, right,
Speaker 3: They looked so happy. I remember being that age, and
Speaker 3: they must have been like eleven or twelve, right, And
Speaker 3: I remember being that age and have my BMX and
Speaker 3: my mates had their bikes as well, and that was it.
Speaker 2: I was so happy then we were.
Speaker 3: It was just me and my bike and your mates
Speaker 3: and you know we we ever, you didn't even talk
Speaker 3: that much.
Speaker 2: We'll just cycle.
Speaker 3: Around, cycling into hedges or I mean when we found
Speaker 3: the slight cliff and went into a river. I remember
Speaker 3: this was really dangerous, not comings we would cycle off
Speaker 3: the slight cliff and land in the river with the bike.
Speaker 2: Nowadays, if my kids do not, I.
Speaker 3: Mean mortifying, right, But do you remember just cycling around
Speaker 3: some holidays was just cycling around just on that bike.
Speaker 4: For us, it was skateboards. But because sadly, I couldn't
Speaker 4: ride a bike for way too long. What do you mean,
Speaker 4: you know how you have your training reel?
Speaker 3: Oh no, I was not allowed those. Oh my dad
Speaker 3: said to me that was weak.
Speaker 2: No, no, no, no. What I had was no skin
Speaker 2: on my knees.
Speaker 3: It's a very aggressive, but a short learning curve how
Speaker 3: to ride a bike because there's no training wheels. He
Speaker 3: actually said this, we there's no training wheels in the lifetime,
Speaker 3: and so I just had the bike.
Speaker 2: There's no training was kept falling over, kept falling foot,
Speaker 2: you know, just your knees.
Speaker 3: Would you just just shrapnel from that old sort of
Speaker 3: gravel they used to have that?
Speaker 2: And then I don't know, but no training wheels.
Speaker 4: Maybe that was my problem that I was on. I
Speaker 4: was too comfortable with the training wheels because even in
Speaker 4: primary school, what I still need.
Speaker 2: Primary school, I was able to ride a bike.
Speaker 4: This is shameful and it was it would have been
Speaker 4: at the time if kids had known and I was
Speaker 4: still on training wheels.
Speaker 2: And I remember one kid and that ninety I didn't wear.
Speaker 3: My Knie made that if you're trying to gone down
Speaker 3: ride a bike and you're wearing a ninety.
Speaker 2: I'm just putting a profile here of the young Jack.
Speaker 2: Those wizards have been arranged at night time in the bedroom.
Speaker 4: I remember being in the school yard before school one
Speaker 4: day and Daniel Rogers would ride his bike to school.
Speaker 3: It's amazing these names you remember with traumatic incense that
Speaker 3: are in our hurt lockers.
Speaker 4: My memory of it is a crowd of people around
Speaker 4: and Daniel Rodgers like skidded up to me and he said, Jack,
Speaker 4: you can have a turn next on my new bike.
Speaker 4: I had to pretend I knew I couldn't ride it
Speaker 4: without the training wheel, so I had to pretend like, nah, Daniel,
Speaker 4: you know why, I don't worry about it.
Speaker 2: Man, And you put in.
Speaker 3: An Italian accent to try and start your way out
Speaker 3: like a mama fin.
Speaker 2: Where those streets are? Shuh?
Speaker 3: That couldoza kid from number twenty two and anyway right
Speaker 3: this morning on a one wide phone. In bicycles, anything
Speaker 3: to do with bikes, bicycles, whether it's injuries, Pats, did
Speaker 3: you I imagine you were like in the local street?
Speaker 3: I mean, were girls right? My dolls are good bikes.
Speaker 3: They don't really they go off.
Speaker 2: All they do is go off for walks and talk
Speaker 2: and talk and talk and talk.
Speaker 3: Come home, call the friend they were just talking to
Speaker 3: and talk and talk and talk. My child instrument, I'm
Speaker 3: just cycling on that flipping bike. We're very little to
Speaker 3: say myself. Patty, what would be your one word story
Speaker 3: about bicycles.
Speaker 5: Well, it's funny because Chris, my husband, always he wanted
Speaker 5: a drag stuff when he was I don't know, eight
Speaker 5: or nine, and one of his older brothers had one,
Speaker 5: had an orange one. Anyway, it suddenly disappeared just before
Speaker 5: Christmas one year and he said to his dad, where's
Speaker 5: Gregg's by, like where's Griggs? But a yeah, it was
Speaker 5: pinched from the local pool. So that was all that
Speaker 5: was said. And then Christmas morning this bread well seemingly
Speaker 5: brand new green drag stuff turned up under the tree.
Speaker 5: They'd rebirthed the bike.
Speaker 4: Well and Dad painted it.
Speaker 5: Dad had painted.
Speaker 3: It and that cheap sort of paint that flakes off
Speaker 3: with this by the time you got the brawns on
Speaker 3: the barbie that feeds back to it's a og color.
Speaker 1: You're listening to the Question Lo Carle Show podcast.
Speaker 3: One word phone in bicycles, some of the happiest days
Speaker 3: of my life were on that BMX bike.
Speaker 2: Me the bike, and my mates. That was it.
Speaker 3: I do remember though, before I had the BMX bike,
Speaker 3: Jackie Boy was sharing his bike, shame about how he
Speaker 3: didn't learn to ride without.
Speaker 2: The training wheels. Quite a while.
Speaker 3: I remember, you know, racing bikes, okay, I remember all
Speaker 3: my mates had like five ten fifteen gear bikes. My
Speaker 3: mom didn't wantn't let my dad get me one with
Speaker 3: too many gears. She was too worried because she was
Speaker 3: a nurse. She was always worth that danger was everywhere.
Speaker 3: She was worried that I would cycle onto a truck
Speaker 3: or something like that. I had my first racing I
Speaker 3: only had three gears. My mates goes, that got three gears,
Speaker 3: and I go no, no, no, I lie to and I
Speaker 3: nudge it here and three becomes six, nine, twelve, fifteen.
Speaker 2: So yeah, it just looks like three. But how come
Speaker 2: you can't keep up with us?
Speaker 3: Because you know I don't like to go into turbo mode.
