Speaker (00:33):
Bonnie Lulu and the forest of Fairies.
Today was a special ride forBonnie.
She got to ride with her cousinLulu.
Lulu was just learning to ride abike for the first time, but she
felt confident enough to headinto the forest.
Are you sure I can ride it?
Lulu asked Bonnie Grinnedalready pulling on her pink and

(00:54):
black riding jersey.
Of course I was younger than youwhen I started.
And look at me now.
She tapped her little bikebeside them.
This one's perfect for you.
It even has sparkle mode.
Lulu's eyes went wide.
Really?
Bonnie leaned in and whispered,well, not technically, but if
you ride it sometimes the magicbutton on the handlebars makes

(01:16):
it go fast.
Trust me, they were parked onthe edge of a forest not far
from home.
One with thick green trees,mossy paths, and a secret little
trails that weaved through likeferry highways.
Bonnie had brought Mitch alongtoo, of course, just in case
they needed a grownup to help.
He was busy adjusting the tirepressure on his bike, dressed in

(01:38):
his motocross gear.
Okay, Lulu Bonnie said, swinginga leg over her own pink bike.
You remember the throttle, don'tyou?
Lulu nodded.
Yep.
Twist it and let's go.
Good girl.
Now remember, stand up when itgets bumpy.
Bombon said.
And if you hear a giggle behindthe trees.

(01:58):
It might be a forest fairyLulu's mouth dropped.
Fairies.
Yep.
I saw one last time.
Let's go find them.
The bikes roared to life, andthe girls slowly rolled into the
forest.
Bonnie led the way standing upconfidently, knees bent, elbows
out like she'd practiced ahundred times before.
Lulu followed.

(02:18):
A little bit nervous at first,but her fairy braveness came
through as she bounced overevery bump.
This is amazing.
Lulu squealed her dress up, tutuover her riding gear, bouncing
under her chest protector.
You're doing great.
Bonnie called back.
Now watch out for those treeroots Lulu.

(02:39):
Gas.
What?
Tree roots.
Bonnie pointed just in time forLulu to stand up and bomb.
She hit a tree root, butfortunately when sailing over it
safely and landed on the trailon the other side.
Third as she landed with agiggle.
Nice one.
Mitch yelled behind them.
That was a proper bunny hop,Lulu.
They weave through the ferns andgum trees.

(03:00):
The sun flickering through theleaves above birds chirped and
somewhere far off a kookaburra.
Laughed like it had heard afunny joke.
Bonnie pulled up next to an oldlog and shut off her bike.
Now she said to Lulu, this is afairy log.
She whispered Sometimes if yousit quietly, you can hear them
chatting.
The girls sat for a moment inthe forest sipping from their

(03:23):
water bottles.
Lulu looked around eyes wide.
I think I just saw one.
She said, Bonnie grinned.
I told you they're around here.
Suddenly a crack echoed throughthe bush, then a mo and the
sound of something huge camerunning.
What was that?
Lulu asked, gripping herhandlebars and ready to get
outta there.
Mitch appeared from around thebend, eyes wide behind his

(03:45):
goggles.
It's a wild cow.
It just ran right through thetrack.
I reckon it's lost.
Let's get the hell outta herebefore it tramples us.
Well then Bonnie said, we betterherd it back to safety Fairy
forest rules.
Say you've gotta help lostcreatures.
Bonnie jumped on her bike.
Are you ready, Lulu?
We've gotta get this cow back toits family.

(04:06):
I'm ready.
Lulu said.
They followed the hoof printsthrough the sand and grass
bouncing through small puddlesof water and winding between
trees on their dirt bikes.
The trail turned muddy, butBonnie showed Lulu how to keep
her weight back and stay smoothon the throttle.
Don't give it too much.
Bonnie told Lulu just steadylike, you're sneaking past a
sleeping troll.

(04:26):
Lulu followed her line.
Exactly.
Okay, Bonnie got it.
Eventually they found the cowmunching on long grass near a
little creek.
Mitch approached slowly andwaved his arms.
The cow turned him, begantrotting back down the track.
Right.
Let's escort her back.
This way, lady Oo, Lulu giggledso hard.
She nearly stalled and crashedher bike at Bonnie.
Following the cow, Lulu followedbehind Bonnie too.

(04:49):
Beeping her horn.
Beep, beep, beep, beep to getthe cow moving to go back to her
family.
Lulu was getting the hang of theriding.
She was able to follow the cow,jump up over tree roots, get
through puddles and push her waythrough mud bogs.
She was loving learning to ridethe bike in the ferry forest.
They rode on, until they reacheda big open clearing there.

(05:11):
Waiting on the other side.
Were a dozen tiny fairies.
At least that's what Bonniesaid.
Look, they're guarding theflower gate.
She whispered, we have to do atrick to enter.
Bonnie popped a tiny wheelieover a bump.
Lulu gas, I can't do that.
Yes, you can just lean back,pull up on the bars and give it

(05:32):
a bit of throttle.
Bonnie told Lulu, okay, I reallywant to enter, so I've gotta do
a wheelie to get through.
Lulu gave it a go.
And popped her front wheel andinch off the ground.
Bonnie clapped fairy approved.
They passed through the clearingand followed a winding trail up
a hill.
The path lined with purpleflowers and glittering gum

(05:55):
leaves.
Bonnie stood the whole way usingher legs to soak up the bumps up
here she shouted..
They reached the top and parkedtheir bikes.
Lulu stood next to her cousin,breathless.
Her cheeks pink with joy.
I did it.
Lulu said You did more thanthat, said Bonnie.
You nailed it.
You even pulled a wheelie to getinto the secret fairy ground as

(06:18):
they rode home fairy wingsfluttering, tus, dusty and
cheek.
Saw from smiling.
Mitch rode up alongside them.
You girls were incredible today.
He said Even the fairies wouldbe proud.
Lulu beamed.
Can we ride again tomorrow?
That was so much fun.
I didn't even get that dirty.
Bonnie gave her a high five.

(06:40):
Hey Lou, just remember any dayon a dirt bike is a good day.
