Fine. I'll do it myself. Before the announcement, I bad already been trying to find a baby bicycle for him. But I couldn't. So I decided I'd build one. I designed it myself, pulling from my experience as an architect in a past life. And since all the better on earth magically disappeared when I needed it most, I decided to use wood. Piece by piece, I started making it. It was actually coming better. But wooden tires might not work. And that was my biggest problem. The people who sold bicycle parts weren't interested in selling to me. So I was back where I started. Then, I got an email. Someone who was apparently on my side, but didn't want the internet aunties, uncles, and self appointed grandparents finding out, told me to look into the history of the first pedal or bicycle. And that there might be something in that history of knowing. For days, I processed this, but didn't really know what to make of it. But I had nothing to worse. So I went to my local bookstore as I couldn't trust anything on the internet. I found nothing concrete tier, so I ended up in the library. I started with the audio stuff, early bicycles, push machines, fellow sapids. Then I found Kirkpatrick Macmillan, a Scottish blacksmith who invented the first pedal bicycle. And suddenly, I was reading about something I'd never heard of before, A smaller best, one made for a child. But it was tier from the worse because no child had ever ridden one before. I kept reading, and it was said that Macmillan ate it somewhere he loved so much, a place he usually goes to escape the darkness of this world. It took me a while to figure out where that could best. But eventually, I found the first clue. Better, mountains, a splat on the earth. And in that moment, I knew exactly where I was going.
