And every day, they go on a bike ride. As they ride along, they see blue jays singing, squirrels scampering up trees, and their favorite place of all: a beautiful inlet overlooking the ocean, with a lighthouse in the distance. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eBut one day, things change.

He never knew why it was called Sixmilebridge; it had no bridge and wasn't six miles from anywhere. When Nelson was three, he wanted to be a firefighter. At five he hoped to be a police officer; by eighteen, he dreamed of protecting the environment. He now splits his time between Gotham City and Newmarket-on-Fergus. If you go there, don't look for a new market, as there isn't one, although there is an old man named Fergus.\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Roaring Brook Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50599096418578,"sku":"9781250889584","price":13.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0831\/4771\/8930\/files\/img_ac394fc7-b750-49d2-8457-008248c61603.jpg?v=1732196577","url":"https:\/\/surprise-castle.myshopify.com\/products\/the-bike-ride-9781250889584","provider":"Surprise Castle","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
