One of my favorite jokes. Except it was the preacher that lost the bicycle. My uncle told one. “I bought my wife a bicycle - now she peddles it all over town!”
The guy in front on the tandem bike: “Boy that was a tough hill!”
The guy in back: “Yeah! And if I hadn’t had the brakes on the entire time - we would have rolled right back down!”
Me and my buddy across the street had friends that lived about 4 miles away in suburbia (Junior High). I’m amazed now at how we thought nothing of riding our bikes over there. And often we would end up riding home to go get something (like a baseball mitt) and then ride back.
Now a days, if I have to DRIVE 4 miles I try to plan my trips to be able to hit a few of my errands on one day!
Great jokes and stories, FRiend!
