In the vast, wild state of Texas, where the hot sun hangs high in the sky like a glowing campfire marshmallow, there exists a group of extraordinary kids. They are known as the Pedal Pioneers, the zaniest, most adventurous bunch of young bikers this side of the Rio Grande. Whether they're cruising through the prairies of the Panhandle or tackling the trails of the Hill Country, you can bet your boots they're having a hoot and a half! The leader of the Pedal Pioneers is a ten-year-old boy named Tumbleweed Ted. Ted got his nickname because he tumbles as much as he rides - but he always gets up with a grin and a giggle, dusts off his cowboy hat, and hops back on his bike. There's no quit in Tumbleweed Ted, and that's why the Pedal Pioneers follow him, from the bustling streets of Houston to the towering peaks of Guadalupe Mountains. And then, there's Lasso Lulu, the fastest girl on two wheels! She can outride any armadillo, and with her bike's handlebar lasso, she can snag a soda can from a garbage bin faster than a rattlesnake strike! But what really makes these Texas kids special isn’t just their biking skills, or their funny names, or even their ten-gallon helmets. It's their spirit, the way they encourage each other, the way they laugh and learn together on their biking adventures. So, saddle up, y'all, because in Texas, biking isn't just a hobby, it's a wild, wacky, wheel-spinning way of life!
