Esinye sezizathu esenza ngidonseke emabhayisikili kagesi wezimpahla kwaba amandla okudonsa izinto ezisindayo kanye / noma omunye umgibeli omdala kalula. Kule mpelasonto ngithole ithuba lokuvivinya ibhayisikili lami. Umngani uphuma esimweni futhi bekwabelana ngezithombe zezinto abazithengisayo. Ngangikhangwa umuntu ogqoka. Ngabelane ngesithombe salowo ogqokayo ku-akhawunti yami ye-Twitter futhi ngabuza engangihamba nabo ngebhayisikili ukuthi ngabe bezwa ukuthi umgqoki angalingana yini nebhayisikili lami le-e-cargo. Ngangikhuthazwa ukuthenga imichilo yezimpahla. Ekugcineni ngigcine ngiya esitolo sehadiwe ngathenga imichilo yama-ratchet ngokususelwa kusincomo somsebenzisi we-Twitter.

Umngani wami uhlala ePilsen, ngakho-ke ngahambisa ibhayisikili lami lezimpahla ngo-'L 'ngisuka eRogers Park ukonga isikhathi, amandla ami nebhethri lebhayisikili lami. Lapho ngifika ekhaya lomngane wami, omunye umuntu owayeshayele lapho esuka eLakeview wayethi uyavalelisa. Banikele ngokuthwala umgqokisi enyakatho ngemoto yabo. Ngikucabangele lokho, kepha ngatshela umngani wami ukuthi okungenani ngifuna ukuzama ukugqoka umuntu ngebhayisikili lami, ngoba bengingakaze ngisebenzise imichilo yezintambo phambilini. Ngenxa yamathiphu atholwe ku-YouTube nosizo oluvela kumngane wami, ngikwazile ukuvikela okokugqoka ebhayisikilini ngemichilo. Abashayeli abambalwa ababedlula ngendlela bahleka lapho besedlula, kodwa ngangizimisele ukuhambisa lowo ogqoka ngibhayisikili.

UCourtney uthola izinyawo zakhe ePilsen.

Lapho yonke imichilo yami emi-4 ye-ratchet isiseduze kwesigqoki, ngiqede ukuhlolwa kwehla ngebhulokhi futhi kwadingeka ngidlulisele kulowo osembathisile. Maphakathi novivinyo kuqhutshwa umshayeli weveni enkulu wehlisa ijubane ukuze angigqolozele. Ngiphume uhleko olukhulu ngemuva kokuthi engidlulisile futhi ngazizwa ngiwumdlandla emcabangweni wokuheha ukubuka kanye nelukuluku ekuhambeni kwami ​​kwamamayela angu-15 ukuya ekhaya.

Ngiqonde empumalanga kumzila webhayisikili ongu-18 Street engxenyeni ethile yohambo lwami futhi ngidonsa amahlandla amathathu ukududula umgqokisi ngibuyele enkabeni ngilungise imichilo. Ngesinye isikhathi umgqokisi wagxuma ngokunganaki eduze komhlaba. Ngikwazile ukuyibamba ngesikhathi ngenxa yomuzwa wami. Ngingathola umzingeli wokudonsela phambili ngaphambi kokuba izinto zingalungiseki.

Ngisola ukuthi ucingo lwesithathu olusondele lwenzeka lapho umshayeli onganakile eqa umgwaqo webhayisikili u-18th eyongena endaweni yokupaka engasemgwaqeni ngaphandle kokubheka ukuhamba kwebhayisikili, eshaya umuntu ogqoka. Umgibeli wabo wahleka, kepha angisitholanga leso simo esiyingozi sihlekisa nakancane.

Kodwa-ke, kuHalsted Street, njengoba ngangilinde isignali yokwenza ujikele lwesobunxele olungasenyakatho, kwabonakala kuyinto enhle ukuhlekisa ngokuhlala ebhayisikili lami nomuntu omkhulu wokugqoka uboshwe ngemuva. Ngenkathi ngidlula phakathi kwe-viaduct ephakathi komgwaqo u-16 no-17, ngazizwa ngingakhululekile ngabashayeli ababhuduzela eduze ngakwesobunxele sami, udonga lukakhonkolo kwesokudla sami, nefenisha enkulu engangiyiphethe. Ngisho nangezimo ezijwayelekile lokhu kweqa kungenza ngikhathazeke, ngakho-ke ungacabanga ukungakhululeki kwami ​​ngomthwalo omkhulu nobanzi.

Ngiphinde ngafonelwa eduze kwaseRoosevelt Road. Njengoba ngidlula empambanweni yomgwaqo, omunye kwakungumshayeli elungiselela ukupaka i-curbside. Umgibeli obesemotweni ungibonile futhi umshayeli wanyakaza kancane kwesobunxele kodwa akwanele. Umshayeli usangqubuzisa ingubo yami yokugqoka, okwenza ibhayisikili lami lakhala. Ngagxuma ngasuka ngakwazi ukuvimbela umuntu owayegqoka ukuthi ashaye phansi. Umgibeli webhayisikili ngemuva kwami ​​wanginikeza isandla, wangisiza ekuqiniseni lowo ogqoka. Wabe esethi uzongiboleka i-bungee, engayamukela ngokwazisa. Lapho senginokuzethemba okwanele ukuqhubeka, umSamariya Olungileyo, ogama lakhe kwakunguKumar, ngomusa wanginikeza ithuba lokuthi “angibone” lapho ngihamba khona, uma kwenzeka okokugqoka eqala ukushibilika futhi.

Ezansi kwendlela eyeqayo phakathi kweFulton Market neHubbard Street, umshayeli wayepakwe kulayini webhayisikili. Ngazithola ngifisa ukuthi esikhundleni sokupenda nje, ibhayisikili ibinokuvikelwa kokhonkolo okusiza ukuvikela abashayeli ukuthi bangayisebenzisi kabi.

Kepha ukuba nebala lokugibela ngakwesobunxele kwami ​​kwenze uhambo lwaba nokuphumula ngokwengeziwe. Mhlawumbe ngenxa ye-bungee, umgqoki wayeka ukuncipha futhi ngakwazi ukuhamba kahle ngendlela yonke. Sithathe iHalsted saya eBroadway, sabhekisa amabombo entshonalanga ku-Irving Park Road saya ku-Clark Street, sathatha lokho sasenyakatho saya eHollywood Avenue, lapho sagijimela khona empumalanga futhi saya eGlenwood Avenue Greenway

Ngangihlele indlela ezogwema ama-humps wejubane angalimaza iphakethe lamaqanda aphethwe yibhayisikili, futhi nakanjani bekungeke kube kuhle ukuthwala umuntu wokugqoka. Ngakho-ke eThorndale ngangiqonde entshonalanga, bese ngiqhubeka kuGreenview, Pratt, nase-Ashland ezindleleni ngeRogers Park.

Ingubo yami ngokuphepha lapho iya khona.

UKumar wagcina esengitshele ukuthi usebenzela idolobha lase-Evanston kumaphrojekthi "okusimama nokuqina". Lokhu kushintshana kubuyise ukholo lwami ebuhleni babantu nasezimangalisweni ezincane. Kubo bonke abantu abangawela nabo emzileni webhayisikili, ngathintana nomuntu owayebuyele endaweni yaseFar North Side engihlala kuyo futhi ngabelana ngothando lwami ngemvelo nokulwa nokuguquka kwesimo sezulu.

Mina noKumar sahlukana amakhilomitha ambalwa ukusuka lapho ngihlala khona. Ngazizwa ngithembekile ukuthi ngingenza ekhaya ngaphandle kwesigameko futhi ngangingafuni ukumyisa kude kakhulu nasekhaya lakhe elisemngceleni. Lapho sengifikile ekhaya ngenza umdanso wokugubha futhi ngazizwa ngidabukile ngokuthi akekho komakhelwane bami owayengabona lesi simangaliso. Ngijabule kakhulu ngokuthi ngiphikelele ekuphatheni ingubo yami ngebhayisikili. Manje sengizizwa sengathi ngingathatha umhlaba.
