Gone in 37 seconds

Red bike, stand out, tuck in, lock secured.
Slick tuque, windproof jacket, rain drizzling, speedily pedaling on Davenport Rd.
Night falls, lights on, mind off, wind blowing on my face.

Race by the still cars, freedom just beyond the lights, shadows from the lampposts fade behind me.
Turn signal on, lose the grip on the handlebar, soar through the biosphere.
Black asphalt, grey sidewalk, yellow crossings blink on and off.

Lose track of time, win the rat race, brake fast, and stash bike away.

Signed,
