Bicycle Bell Strike

Slipped past the porch mat straight down the concrete steps into the street. Found a massive blue bicycle leaning against a low fence. Target identified. I leaped onto the front tire and scrambled up the steel spokes. Fast climb. Reached the chrome bell on the handlebar. Slapped my suction hand onto the polished metal dome. Thwack. Solid seal. I kicked the thumb strike with my heel. Ding! The sharp chime vibrated right through my torso. The shock broke my suction seal. Instant drop. Caught a black brake cable with both legs on the way down. Swung underneath like a pendulum. Morning sun hit my stomach. Lit up the black tire below with a red circle. Inverted perch secured. Bell mechanism confirmed.
