Is it time? No. The time was long ago. But the second best time is now. Worship the one you have now as the holey relic that it is, may its iron oxide be ever developing.

A sharp left turn may reveal, in dramatic fashion, that the handlebar is not all right. There's a dead branch dangling on the end. Things are not likely to turn out well for this biker.
