I stood alongside my bike at the top of the hill. My brother, Alex, waited as I made up my mind. In front of me the road lay like a ribbon. “I’m ready,” I thought. I swung my leg up, climbed onto the seat, and pushed on the pedal. Soon I was slipping down the road, faster and faster. The world zoomed past me: trees, boulders, woods…browns, greys, greens-a blur of color. Then something darted in front of me. I swerved to avoid it, lost my balance, and headed into the wild brush on the side of the road. My bike flipped and suddenly I saw nothing. My brother went inside for help because he wondered if I was alive.
