THE WHEELIE THAT KEEPS ON GIVING

EVERY 20 YEARS OR SO I'M REMINDED of my first real commitment to flying through the air on two wheels. There a I was, an immortal 9yearold in the back yard. Tossed the shovel, ready to test my foot-high jump. Got up to speed,Got airborne, Yanked hard on the bars.Too hard. Smacked my mouth.Busted my lip and my new front tooth. My uncle, the dentist, glued on a replacement for what I'd cracked off. It looked terrible, but I didn't care. At 14, the parents upgraded me. New dentist shaved what remained and slid over a poorly matched cap. I didn't care. Couple of decades later a better matched cap, which finally gave out a few months ago. Got my new, cap this week. Sometimes I wonder if I'd not knocked that chunk of tooth off... or if I'd not crashed my BMX bike, ripping the skin to my knee cap...or if I hadn't spent my afternoons delivering 50 lbs of magazines by bike... If hadn't had those hardships and traumas, would I have appreciated all the highs those two-wheelers delivered... ... would I still be hooked?
