People in Los Angeles are known for their love of cars. The city is very large, and its public transportation is slow. So people drive everywhere. But now, a group of bicyclists are trying to get people out of their cars and on bikes.
Devon Fitzgerald says he has to be careful when he rides his bike in the streets. “A lot of people are in a rush, and it's very difficult to keep careful, for they would rather care for their speed than your safety.” Although riding a bike to work can be dangerous, he prefers it to a car. “It's much simpler than driving a car. For example, I don't have to worry about parking.”
Roger Rosas drives to work. \someone would rush across by bike. Or you can easily get into an accident. \
To make bicycling safer, some people who live and work near each other are riding to work

B
I still remembered my first day of second grade. I was led to a room. No teacher yet. Girls talking. Boys trying to kill each other.
I took some paper and a pencil, picked a desk, and went to work. Minutes later, a girl came over and sat on top of my desk.
“What’re you doing?” she said. “Writing to 100,” I replied. “Is that you can do?” “No,” I said.
Then I rose from my seat to get my pencil sharpener. I had no idea that when I stood, the desk would fall over and hurt her leg.
Her name was Jane. From that day on--she was my best friend. Wherever we went--to school or church or basketball games, Jane saved me a seat or I saved one for her.
Many years later, after college, I moved to California and married. Jane stayed in our hometown to be a social worker. We were friends for more than 50 years. After her death seven years ago, I still think of her often, especially at the start of the school year.
TV ads try to tell us what children need for school—new shoes, clothes, backpacks. But really, children’s needs are simple. Besides the basics—to be fed, cared for, and loved—they need the gift of friendship.
For years, I feared how people saw me. But one day, I finally understood. I didn't need to be smart or pretty or popular. I just needed to be kind.
