John did the cooking and cleaning, whichapparently were jobs he?d shared with his father at home. I helped him get aroutine up, introduced him to a fe...w friends and gradually we began to spend allour time outside lessons together. His home life was explained to me over thefirst few weeks, hesitantly at first but then, when he realized I wasn?t goingto be shocked and disgusted by it, it seemed to come out in a flood. John was an only child, hismother, not wanting to have more than one child to. I just told him that I needed help. I had to grin in spite of myself. I can see for two blocks and his car is not in sight but I can hear that beater of his. As Dave pulled around the corner his lights flashed over me. I could hear his engine start to stall when he saw me. I must have surprised him. He took his foot off the gas when he realized I’m sitting in the middle of several suitcases and my computer. As he pulled up I put on my best happy smile and waved. “Hey Dave” I called as he exited. Using this approach, we could easily track distances and speed. What it came down to was a practical application of the math and geometry that I'd learned in school.The weather was still cool on the water. But the removable enclosure around the cockpit kept the wind off us. With the addition of the sweaters and jackets, we all felt comfortable. With the wind, as strong as it was blowing, it felt like we were going fast. But Steve said that we were only averaging between six and twelve miles an. I scanned the room.I hung my head in disappointment.....It appeared that the apparent "ladies night" had attracted nothing more than female bikers, truckers and all stereotypes in between. Finding a female looking female was proving to be rather difficult.But then, just as I'd practically given up hope, a cute young girl caught my eye. I picked up the straight vibe as she sat there extremely awkwardly, mostly looking at the floor. At this point in time, this was my only realistic chance to get.
