Macy had a hard life growing up. She had to fend off mean boys picking on her all the time and to try to prove herself to be awesome, she took up bicycling. Sadly, Macy is very slow and not good on a bike at all. Whenever Scott has written himself into a corner, he uses a disparaging story about Macy. You can see more of Macy and her cycling skills by going to her YouTube Channel.
