On the trail with Gem and Grace


When they turned the corner to the bridge Gem stopped and thought: "Grace, this is where you take over..get up there and go first."
Rider: "Gemmy, you gotta go first, Gracie needs you to lead him."
Gem: "Un uh, Gracie goes first. Final."
Rider with leg applied: "Gemmy you're the man now, you gotta (leg) go first for him."
Gem: "Okaaaaay (walks 2 steps) ....NO!" (stops)
Rider with force (kick): "Gem you have to. C'mon, you go first today."
Gem: (reluctantly) "Ok, but I'm gonna go s l o w l y and right before we get to the asphalt before the bridge I'm stopping for one last bailout try."
Rider (at the asphalt): "C'mon keep going" (kick, kick)
Gem: "Awright I'll do it but I'm gonna LOOK at this bridge with my nose 6 inches from it and go verrrryyyy s l o w l y."
Rider: "Good boy Gem."
