The Lonely Bicycle

Gary Green

In the early morning hours, a truck makes a delivery to Gary's Bicycle Store. Among the many bicycles. On board the truck are four bicycles in particular: Spokes, Goliath, Junkyard and Teddybear. Inside the store is a cat. But it is no ordinary cat. It's name is Coco and it thinks it is the boss of everything that goes in in the store.........and the neighborhood.
Sokes is purchased by the son of a well off family, that hope to add to his life. Tommy Matters has little or no social life and that they hope a new bicycle will change that. Things are going well for the boy, up until he is kidnapped. Spokes soon learns of the incident and sets out to fine him. He soon meets up with Red. Red is a little red wagon, who after some convincing decides to help him.
Goliath is a unicycle . He is purchased by Bill, the owner of a traveling carnival. Bill is a man that will do anything to see that the show goes on. It is not beyond him to abuse his animals. The object of most of his abuse are the bears in his carnival. His daughter is determined to rescure the bears. She and her friend work to stop the abuse and send the bears to a santuary. Goliath joins up with them and the three of them set out on this mission.
Junkyard is purchased by the family of a young boy who has cancer. As a means of making his fate less threatening, they buy him a bicycle that he soon comes to love. But soon after, Junkyard is stolen. He is stolen by a young man determined to rob a sneaker store along with his unwilling friends. As determined as Junkyard is to get back to his rightful owner, he is set on stopping this evil act.
