On a heavy eight-wheeler he rode to fame.”

He took his sword and went to fight;
And as he rode both hill and dale,
Armed upon his shirt of mail,
A dragon came out of his den,
Had slain, God knows how many men!”

The child’s first step,
as awesome as an earthquake.
The first time you rode a bike,
wallowing up the sidewalk.”
