The Dunn Men & Their Obsession With Their Fantastic Peddling Machines

What started out as a form of recreational therapy to cope with the nuances that life throws one&#x2019;s way has turned into an uncontrolled obsession. Peter and his two sons, Paul and Thomas, have gone off the deep end; they are consumed by bicycling. Paul has taken it to a new level with a total mileage of well over 2,500 for the year, with perhaps a third of those miles mountain biking.

However, what started off as a healthy hobby has proven on occasion to be deleterious to one&#x2019;s health. read on.

Peter and Thomas attend the same church, which lacks a bicycle rack. Since they enjoy biking to church during the temperate months, this made them feel somewhat discriminated against as there were parking facilities for cars and even a hitching rail for Amish visitors, but no bike rack. Polite requests for a bicycle rack were politely ignored by the church trustees, whereupon Thomas and Peter entered into a friendly wager. Whoever biked the least amount of miles in 2010 would pay for the installation of a bike rack at the church.

It was game on! Despite the nearly forty year difference in age, Peter was hanging in there with his youngest son. Even though he was 500 miles or so behind Thomas in September, Peter had a backup plan to take off for two weeks in December, travel down to Florida, bike 100 miles a day for ten days, and return home the triumphant winner.

PAUL DUNN

unfortunately, the wheels came off Peter&#x2019;s plans in a somewhat dramatic fashion. On his way out of his driveway on Saturday morning, eleven o&#x2019;clock, September twenty-fifth, a small twig - one inch in diameter - became firmly lodged between the front wheel and the fork of his bicycle, causing the wheel to lock up instantly and sending Peter sailing over the handle bars. (unfortunately, this flight was not captured on YouTube.) He landed in a somewhat dramatic fashion on his hands and knees. His left elbow and femur were fractured, rendering him incapable of riding a bicycle for at least four months. The most frequently asked question of Peter was &#x201C;Were you wearing your helmet?&#x201D; His response was &#x201C;Yes, but what good is a helmet if you don&#x2019;t hit your head?&#x201D;

In light of the accident, Peter appealed to Thomas&#x2019; sense of honor to postpone the wager on the bike rack until 2011; expecting that Thomas, as one of the church pastors, would be charitable towards his father in his debilitated state. But Thomas refused to renegotiate the wager for reasons his father could not understand. However, Thomas&#x2019; mother is an ancestral Swiss Mennonite known for their unyielding ways, and Peter assumes that Thomas inherited this stubborn, take no prisoners streak from the maternal side of the family. Thus the church will have a new bike rack next year.
