I hope he leaves the house for work one day, rides down his drive, checks both ways and makes to pop off the curb, lifting the front wheel so that both tires hit the tarmac at the same time with that really satisfying, connected feeling from the simultaneous bulge of the tires - but for some reason he's not really with it and the front doesn't stay up long enough and the wheels clatter a bit and it just puts him in an off mood for the whole journey.
Oh, wait, he doesn't ride bikes...
