One day down on the farm, Duck got a wild idea. "I bet I could ride a bike," he thought. At first he rode slowly and he wobbled a lot, but it was fun! A duck on a bike? From Sheep to Horse to Chicken to Goat, everyone in the barnyard has something to say about Duck's zany idea. But what are they really thinking? And what will happen next.
