“SPECIAL DELIVERY Ben Edwards, 11, paperboy for the Rochelle News-Leader,
makes his deliveries with a twist Friday afternoon. Ben, his father, Bruce
and younger brother Brad, 8, enjoy delivering papers to the customers on
Route 17 (which includes N. First, Second, Third and Main Streets) on
their unicycles when weather permits. The boys each received unicycles for
Christmas 2000 to increase their leg strength and balance for soccer and
have since discovered the joy of cycling in and of itself.”
That story is plain and simply heart warming. I salute you for not only
being able to have fun riding but also making it an activity that brings
your own and other families together.
Would that it were so for us all, whatever our particular passions
happen to be.
