BERT: When I'm out there, on the open bike path,
-
feeling the wind in my eyebrow, I feel so free.
-
BERT: [SINGING] Sure, I've got two little wheels on the side,
-
but that's why my bike is one sweet ride.
-
They help keep me up, help me stay in control.
-
I won't give them up, that's just how I roll.
-
That's how I roll.
-
Oh yeah, that's how I roll.
-
I've got to have each and every wheel
-
because that's how Bert is keeping it real.
-
I've got training wheels and I've got soul.
-
I won't give them up, that's how I roll.
-
That's how I roll.
-
Oh yeah, that's how I roll.
-
ZOE: Hi, I'm Zoe, and I'm here to tell you about the word--
-
[ELMO VROOMING AROUND]
-
ELMO: Tweet!
-
Transportation!
-
ZOE: That's right, Elmo.
-
ELMO: Oh, no, no, no.
-
Elmo's not Elmo anymore, Elmo's a car.
-
Vroom, vroom vroom, vroom, vroom, vroom.
-
ZOE: A car?
-
But Elmo, we're supposed to be telling everybody
-
about transportation.
-
Oh wait a second, I see what Elmo's doing.
-
Transportation is a way of getting from one place
-
to another, and a car gets you from one place to another
-
so a car is--
-
ELMO: Vroom, vroom, vroom.
-
Screech!
-
Transportation!
-
ZOE: That's right.
-
Elmo, check this out.
-
What am I?
-
[CHUGGING]
-
ZOE: Choo, choo! [CHUGGING] Choo, choo!
-
ELMO: Elmo knows.
-
Miss Zoe is a train.
-
ZOE: And a train is?
-
ELMO: Transportation!
-
ZOE: Come on, let's be trains together.
-
ELMO: OK.
-
[CHUGGING]
-
ZOE: Choo, choo!
-
ELMO: Woo, woo!
-
[WHOOSING]
-
ZOE: [CHUGGING] Choo, choo!
-
Oh, look!
-
Elmo's pretending to be a plane.
-
And a plane is?
-
BOTH: Transportation!
-
ZOE: Elmo, I want to be a plane.
-
ELMO: Go for it.
-
ZOE: OK.
-
[SWOOSHING]
-
ZOE: Oh hey, Elmo?
-
Let's be rocket ships.
-
ELMO: OK.
-
Oh, wait a minute.
-
Are rocket ships transportation?
-
ZOE: Well, they can take you from the earth to the moon.
-
So rocket ships are definitely transportation.
-
ELMO: Oh well then, Elmo and Miss Zoe should do it.
-
ZOE: OK.
-
ELMO: OK.
-
You ready?
-
ZOE: Yes.
-
Three--
-
BOTH: Two.
-
One.
-
Blast off!
-
Transportation!
-
ZOE: Come on, Elmo, let's go get some lunch.
-
ELMO: How will Elmo and Miss Zoe get there?
-
ZOE: Why don't we take a motorcycle?
-
ELMO: Good idea, get on!
-
ZOE: OK!
-
ELMO: You on?
-
ZOE: Yes!
-
ELMO: OK.
-
[VROOMING]
-
[ELMO LAUGHS]
-
GROVER: Greetings!
-
It is I, your fuzzy and blue safety expert, Grover.
-
Today, I will demonstrate how to be safe on a bicycle
-
with the help of, um, this chicken!
-
Do not worry my fine feathered volunteer,
-
I am an expert after all.
-
We shall begin with this helmet.
-
Yes, this helmet right here, which
-
should look very nice on your knee.
-
CHICKEN: [CLUCKS]
-
GROVER: You are right, that does not
-
look like it would fit your knee.
-
Perhaps your elbow.
-
Yeah.
-
CHICKEN: [CLUCKS]
-
GROVER: Or your head.
-
That's using your noggin my little chickadee,
-
and protecting it too.
-
And now for these ear pads for extra ear protection.
-
CHICKEN: [CLUCKS]
-
GROVER: What is that, little clucker?
-
I can not hear you with my ear pads.
-
CHICKEN: [CLUCKS]
-
GROVER: And they can also be elbow pads, or wing pads
-
if you happen to be poultry.
-
And also for bike safety protection
-
are these backside pads.
-
Yes, to keep your perky tail feathers safe.
-
CHICKEN: [CLUCKS]
-
GROVER: Knee pads?
-
Perhaps our beaky friend is right.
-
You need some knee protection after all.
-
So there you have it.
-
The helmet, followed by the elbow, or wing pads,
-
and the knee pads.
-
You are ready to ride, Henny Penny.
-
Now put the pedal to the metal, chicken!
-
CHICKEN: [CLUCKS IN FEAR]
-
[CHICKEN CRASHES AND CLUCKS]
-
GROVER: And finally, be sure your volunteer chicken
-
can actually ride a bicycle.
-
CHICKEN: [CLUCKS ANGRILY]
-
GROVER: Oh, why did you not tell me
-
you could not ride that bicycle?
-
I would have gotten training wheels.
-
NARRATOR: And now, our spokesperson.
-
WOMAN: Hello there, bicycle fans.
-
Guess what?
-
I love bicycles?
-
You know why?
-
Because they're fun!
-
Fun to ride.
-
Whee!
-
Fun to go places on.
-
Whoopee!
-
Fun to exercise on.
-
Feeling the burn.
-
They're even fun to sing about.
-
Hey, let's sing a song about a bike now.
-
You may know the song already about a bus.
-
I changed it to a bike because I love bikes.
-
Get ready.
-
Oh!
-
[SINGING] The wheels on a bike go round and round, round
-
and round, round and round.
-
The wheels on the bike go round and round,
-
all through the town.
-
The bell on the bike goes ding, ding, ding.
-
Ding, ding ding.
-
Ding, ding, ding.
-
The bell on the bike goes ding, ding, ding.
-
All through the town.
-
The handlebars on the bike go turn, turn, turn.
-
Turn, turn, turn.
-
Turn, turn, turn.
-
The handlebars on the bike go turn, turn, turn.
-
All through the town.
-
The person on the bike goes up and down, up and down,
-
up and down.
-
The person on the bike goes up and down all through the town!
-
That was great, and now I'm going
-
to ride my bike all through the town.
-
See you next time!
-
ELMO: Wow, look at this bike.
-
Whoa!
-
Whoa, it's so colorful!
-
ABBY: Hiya, Elmo.
-
Wow.
-
What a nice bike!
-
ELMO: Yeah, it's cool.
-
Boy, Elmo would love to go for a ride on it.
-
ABBY: Well, why don't you?
-
ELMO: Oh, well, Elmo's not ready.
-
ABBY: Oh, true.
-
You do have to be ready to ride a bike.
-
But, I can help you with that.
-
ELMO: What?
-
Abby can?
-
ABBY: Sure thing!
-
All it takes is a little magic.
-
ELMO: A helmet?
-
ABBY: Sure!
-
You have to wear a helmet when you ride a bike.
-
ELMO: Well Elmo knows, Abby, but--
-
ABBY: Good, cause it's important to be safe.
-
And now, you're ready to ride.
-
ELMO: No, but Abby, Elmo's still not ready.
-
ABBY: Oh, I get it.
-
You want to be even safer!
-
That's a great idea!
-
There you go!
-
Elmo pads, wrist guards, and knee pads.
-
Now are much safer, so you can take that ride now!
-
ELMO: But Abby, all this stuff is great,
-
but Elmo's still not ready to ride that bike!
-
ABBY: Wow!
-
You really are serious about safety!
-
Well, don't you worry, Elmo, I know just what to do.
-
There you go, Elmo.
-
Now you're as safe as you can possibly be.
-
ELMO: Abby--
-
ABBY: Oh, yeah, you don't have to thank me.
-
I am just happy that I could be the one that--
-
ELMO: Abby!
-
Shh.
-
Abby.
-
Elmo's not ready to ride that bike!
-
ABBY: How can you say that?
-
ELMO: Because Elmo doesn't know how to ride a two wheeler.
-
ABBY: You don't?
-
ELMO: No, Elmo can ride a tricycle,
-
but Elmo hasn't learned to ride a big bike yet.
-
That's why Elmo's not ready to ride.
-
ABBY: [LAUGHS] Oh, boy.
-
[LAUGHS]
-
ELMO: [LAUGHS]
-
ABBY: I'm sorry, Elmo.
-
ELMO: Oh, it's OK.
-
Elmo wants to ride a bike like that someday,
-
but right now Elmo will ride his tricycle, instead.
-
ABBY: Well that sounds like a good idea.
-
ELMO: Yeah.
-
ABBY: And hey, at least you've got your safety gear on,
-
you're protected, so you're ready to ride your trike.
-
See ya, Elmo!
-
ELMO: Oh, bye Abby!
-
Bye!
-
Oh no.
-
Elmo's too protected.
-
Elmo can't ride like this.
-
Abby, come back!
-
Elmo's not ready to ride.
-
No, Elmo's OK.
-
Elmo's protected.
