The Firefighters Saga Of The Bikes
Jim knew that the fire bell would be sounding soon just by the look of the smoke. The problem was that the smoke was getting really thick around the house and he knew that it was just a matter of time before someone called the fire department that he was a member of. The problem was that it was not his house, but the neighbors house that was on fire.
Jim quickly grabbed a pair of pearl izumi shorts and ran out of the house. The bad thing was he did not realize that he grabbed the wrong pairs when he was leaving the house. He quickly realized what he did though and decided to turn around before the guys at the station seen him in what he was wearing.
When he was in the house he heard the tones start dropping telling the department about the fire he already knew about. Thankfully it was his neighbor that called it in and stated that it was only the garage. Jim soon thought though and came to the realization that this was where the neighbor kept his diamondback bikes. However, that was the least of his worries as he headed out the door for what would hopefully be an easy run.
Jim quickly ran out the door and hopped onto his mongoose mountain bike for the fastest ride that he could even imagine taking to the station. He knew that it would not take him that long since it was only about a half mile down the road, but it always seemed to take forever. To help him though he thanked God that he had a good breeze at his back.
When he reached the station he thankfully seen the first trucks door going up and he ducked into it. As he headed towards the door of the engine he knew that it would need to warm up for a few minutes. He turned the key and heard the Detroit Diesel roar to life and knew they would be rocking in just a minute.
They started talking about who would drive, but then they noticed the address and decided that Jim could have the nozzle since he knew the house. Thankfully he had been in the garage only the day before so he know not a whole lot would change over night.
As Jim crawled into the building the nozzle tightly grasped in his hand he saw the flames rolling over his head. He was a little awestruck by this power, but quickly cracked open the nozzle and heard the reassuring hiss of the flames being beaten back. After the fire was out he walked over to his neighbor to check on him. Thankfully Jim saw the bikes sitting next to his neighbor with just a little bit of soot on the handles.
