The Fruits of a Day's Labor

Today I put the finishing touches on about 40 of these babies! Only found one that had been hacked down. Apparently some folks aren't so keen on having these signs in their front yard. Go figure. They are probably golfers. I tried to get one in my front yard but I'm about 150 yards off route. So in that case they call that stealing, I guess. No matter - by end of week we will have six routes encompassing approximately 350 miles, in New Kent and beyond, posted with these signs.
Saw some hot bike bettys grinding out this hill on Old Church Road today. Thought they would be impressed with the signage, but apparently not. They must have had some thing for that hill though, cause they hit it about half a dozen times while I was there. Little too much like training for my taste.
Don't forget to come out and join us for the Sept 25 kickoff event. All routes will be posted, ridden, and supported.
The rest of the year you are on your own. 'Cept for the signs of course, they'll be around until they get hacked, run over or peppered with buckshot. No worry, I gots extras!

Oh yeah, three more days of salvation for you slap nuts who are kickin' the SM100. Try this little preparatory exercise, from the Foghorn yoga camp:

Sit on the floor upright with both heels & feet flat on floor, and legs bent in front of you at approximately a 90 degree angle. The distance between your knees should be slightly more than shoulder width. Breathe deeply and relax.

Now exhale and lean forward, placing your head between your knees. Continue to breathe deeply and try to relax.

Now exhale again and lean further forward.

Now (and this is the important part), take one last deep breath, lean as far forward as possible, tuck you head and KISS YOUR ASS GOODBYE!
