Ready to Roll

I spotted a little metal toy moped parked right by the toolbox, and I knew instantly: it was time to hit the road! Safety first, of course. I fastened a wide silver ribbon around my shoulders like a proper touring jacket, popped half a bright plastic eggshell over my party hat as a sleek racing helmet, and scrambled right onto the saddle! My sneakers barely reached the foot pegs, but I leaned forward and gripped the chrome handlebars tight. One big kick against the concrete, and whoosh! We glided across the smooth floor like a real speedster, skidding to a grand stop beside the garden hose!
