You grab the handlebars of the bike and take control…

…while behind you, I unholster my Email Copywriting Compendium shotgun … and begin unloading it at the goo-‘roo.

Unfortunately for me…

Your attention has been caught by a shiny item box ahead … causing you to swerve the bike wildly in an attempt to pick it up.

The good news:

You get it.

The bad news:

I cannot shoot a goo-‘roo while you swerve like this.

“Hold this thing STEADY!” I yell.

“Sorry!!!” you shout back.

The goo-‘roo lurches closer.

It takes one last giant leap …

…comes flying through the air towards us, and…

BLAM!

This time … I nail the shot.

The goo-‘roo keels over, mortally wounded. It won’t be hopping after us any time soon.

“All right!” you scream.

We zoom off on the bike, leaving the goo-‘roo lying on the trail behind us.

A minute or so later, you turn the bike around a blind corner of the dirt trail, and …

Come face-to-face with the unharmed goo-‘roo, standing right in front of us! 

“AHHHHHHH!” you scream. “IT’S NOT DEAD!”

“HARD LEFT! HARD LEFT!” I yell.
