Jeremy's Bike

The first Saturday of spring, Jeremy woke up thinking about only one thing: riding his bike. The only problem was that his bike was buried behind boxes in the garage from his family's recent move. (1) Sure enough, Jeremy could not even locate his bike, which was hidden behind the moving boxes. This was going to be a bigger job than he thought. Sighing heavily, Jeremy began shifting boxes out of the way. (2) This sight made him grin because he knew that he would be riding his bike in no time now. Another 10 minutes later, and there the bike was, a little dusty and with flat tires. Fortunately, the bike pump and a rag were nearby, so he got to work. By the time he'd finished, Jeremy was sweaty and tired, but he barely noticed. With a surge of happiness, Jeremy wheeled out his shiny bike and donned his helmet. (3)
