Summary[]
Tim is shown riding his bike on a sunny day when Moby crashes into a couple of robots. He gives Tim a letter saying someone wants to learn how to ride her bike safely. First, Tim explains how your handlebars on your bike must be at the exact height of your seat and you must wear a helmet and a bright-colored vest like Cassie for example. While Moby is still riding his bike, Tim explains about the rules of the road and using turn signals. If there's a bicycle lane, stay inside that; but if there isn't one, you need to stay on the right side of the road so cars can pass you on the left.
You should also stay alert and not get distracted by noisy electronics. To be safe, you need to be aware of your surroundings. You can also learn some hand signals to let people know when you're turning. At the end, Moby comes back explaining to Tim that his helmet is messing up his hair. He takes of his helmet and revealing his is indeed messed up. Tim tells Moby that it doesn't matter since he has hair so Moby puts on a wig as a joke and his piece does not impress Tim.
