À propos de l'auteur

Jake Maddox

Who is Jake Maddox? Athlete, author, world-traveler – or all three? He has surfed in Hawaii, scuba-dived in Australia, and climbed the mountains of Peru and Alaska. His books range from the most popular team sports to outdoor activities to survival adventures and even to auto racing. His exploits have inspired numerous writers to walk in his footsteps – literally! Each of his stories is stamped with teamwork, fair play, and a strong sense of self-worth and discipline. Always a team-player, Maddox realizes it takes more than one man (or woman) to create a book good enough for a young reader. He hopes the lessons learned on the court, field, or arena and the champion sprinter pace of his books can motivate kids to become better athletes and lifelong readers.

Mountain Bike Hero - Jake Maddox

Chapter 1 FALLING FLAT

Jonah stood up on his mountain bike. He pumped his legs hard, building up speed. The wind blew through his hair as he sped down the dirt road. He liked the fresh air in the country, even if it smelled like manure.

Hey, wait up! his younger brother, Shawn, called.

Shawn was riding behind Jonah. He was four years younger and four years slower.

I’m always waiting for him, Jonah thought. He slowed down to let Shawn catch up.

It’s really flat out here, Jonah said as Shawn pedaled toward him. I guess that must be why they call this place Flatte County.

It all looks the same, Shawn said, a bit out of breath. He looked around at the endless fields of corn and soybeans. Just farm after farm.

Jonah liked spending weekends at Grandpa’s farm. It was fun to help with chores and visit.

Even so, he was glad Grandpa let them bring their mountain bikes. Out in the country, the best thing to do was spend lots of time outside.

Gravel popped under their bike tires as they rode. A tractor’s engine rumbled in the distance. Jonah did a wheelie for a few feet before setting the front wheel back down.

I’d give anything for some hills, Jonah said. Anything.

Back home, there were parks with winding paved trails. Some paths led riders down steep slopes and through small woods. Out in Flatte County, Jonah could see for miles, but there was nothing to see. It was completely flat.

Hey, Jonah, Shawn said, smiling his goofy smile. Race you back! He took off, riding as fast as he could.

Jonah shook his head. Little brothers, he thought.
