Dear Truck

Distance: 10mi

Miles to go: 1839

Dear Truck,

I have a confession to make…

I have been cheating…

I have a new BFF (bicycle friend forever)…

I have soiled our friendship garden (Spongebob reference)…

I have defiled all that is sacred…

I have diluted the pure water that was our love…

with…

this…

2008 Kona Jake Cyclocross Bike

…please don’t hate me…

I couldn’t help myself… I was weak…

Gas hit $3.39 a gallon and I just lost all control.

I tried to stop… Really… But it hurt so much to fill you up… over… and over… and you just kept asking for more…

Don’t worry… you will always be my truck… but I need to go in a different direction… A “greener” direction…

I’ll still visit you from time to time, if you’ll let me… But your addiction to fossil fuels is just too much… See ya’ around…

B
