- 1:36anybody
- 1:37else,
- 1:37but
- 1:37just
- 1:38from
- 1:38myself.
- 1:40And

- 1:41I
- 1:42actually
- 1:42know
- 1:42what
- 1:43I
- 1:43was
- 1:43looking

- 4:05of
- 4:05me,
- 4:06I
- 4:06couldn't

- 4:08him.
- 4:09In
- 4:09fairness,
- 4:10I
- 4:10hadn't
- 4:11ridden
- 4:11in
- 4:11a
- 4:11few

- 4:13isn't
- 4:14entirely
- 4:14unusual
- 4:15for
- 4:15me.
- 4:16But
- 4:17I
- 4:17remember
- 4:17thinking,
- 4:18have
- 4:19I
- 4:19completely
- 4:20forgotten
- 4:20how
- 4:21to
- 4:21ride?
- 4:21It
- 4:21was
- 4:22just
- 4:22so
- 4:22embarrassing.
- 4:24Then
- 4:25they

- 4:26another
- 4:26one.
- 4:27It
- 4:27was
- 4:27younger,
- 4:28it
- 4:28was
- 4:28greener.
- 4:29And

- 4:31on
- 4:31the
- 4:31first
- 4:32one,
- 4:32I
- 4:33don't
- 4:33think
- 4:33they
- 4:33really
- 4:34expected
- 4:34much
- 4:35from
- 4:35that
- 4:35ride.
- 4:37The
- 4:37plan
- 4:37was,
- 4:38oh,
- 4:38just
- 4:39sit
- 4:39on
- 4:39him
- 4:40and
- 4:40maybe
- 4:40we'll
- 4:41jump
- 4:41one
- 4:41or
- 4:41two
- 4:42small
- 4:42jumps.
- 4:43But
- 4:43this
- 4:43was
- 4:44really
- 4:44funny.
- 4:45I
- 4:45jumped
- 4:46the

- 4:51even
- 4:51realized
- 4:52that.
- 4:53It
- 4:53felt
- 4:53different
- 4:54yet.
- 4:55We
- 4:55just
- 4:55jumped
- 4:56around
- 4:56and
- 4:56I
- 4:57had
- 4:57fun.
- 4:58He
- 4:58was
- 4:59a
- 4:59better
- 4:59mover,
- 5:00a
- 5:00cute
- 5:00jumper.
- 5:01And
- 5:01what
- 5:02struck
- 5:02me
- 5:03wasn't
- 5:03just
- 5:04which
- 5:04one
- 5:04I
- 5:05preferred,
- 5:06it
- 5:06was
- 5:06that
- 5:06I
- 5:07could
- 5:07just
- 5:07tell
- 5:08what
- 5:08was
- 5:08a
- 5:08better
- 5:09match.
