"I don’t like it Oh, shit, Dillon, the bikers are back, all four of the back together when there was a break, then fanning out again

Sally was feeling good She was feeling s that Porsche and the four bikers She’d gone through that opening without hesitation, and she’d done it without any proble she hadn’t had time to think about it, otherwise she would have wet her pants She was grinning, the wind hitting hard against her teeth,direction
