Chapter Three: The Search for the Holy Grail of Chrome

Three Disappointing Shop Stops

The Two-Wheel Trust: This dealer is "everything I secretly dreaded." The lead bike, the 'Reliant Rider 400,' is a "pure, unadventurous dependability" cruiser, offered in the soul-crushing sand dune beige. Dad loves the low-speed touring capacity and high safety rating, while Bruce is miserable, seeing only a leaf blower's engine.

Chrome City Customs: A stark contrast, this shop is loud and filled with bikes plated in chrome or covered in flames. Bruce spots a gorgeous, terrifying cherry red 'Road Reaper,' but it costs seventeen thousand dollars, far exceeding their budget and maturity level. The only affordable option is a solid cruiser painted an unappealing 'Neon Puke Green.'

Big Bob's Big Bike Emporium: Overwhelmed and pressed for time due to the National Golf Open, Dad gives Bruce 30 minutes to look. Bruce is momentarily excited by a sporty, metallic emerald green bike, but the only "red one" in stock turns out to be a tiny, embarrassing scooter called the 'Zip-A-Dee-Doo-Dah 125.'

The Last-Ditch Effort

Frustrated by the beige, neon, and scooter options, and desperate to catch the golf tournament, Dad is ready to quit. However, Bruce begs for "just one more" stop at a dealer called 'The Iron Horse,' which he saw on the way. Dad agrees, making Bruce promise a major parental sacrifice—taking up synchronized swimming—if he misses the final golf putt. Bruce is willing to risk anything for one more chance at two-wheeled redemption.

Would you like to hear about Bruce's visit to the final dealer, 'The Iron Horse'?
