| FROM
THE EDITOR... ON THE INSIDE - TODAY IS TUESDAY, JUNE 5,
2012 |
“Where’s
your bicycle?” “Need a helmet?” My answer of course was don’t have one
and no. No Bike. No helmet. Too old. Or something. Had a great time
Saturday, though, as I watched little ones being introduced to their
bicycle years… from three wheelers to two wheelers with training wheels
to the ultimate goal: the almost-adult bicycle. The event was a Bicycle
Rodeo in Versailles teaching bicycle safety to kids. A great event.
