Adopt a Highway Mission Report

Velo is going green. We've adopted a one mile segment of Hwy 36 on the north side of town. Sunday the gang met and broke out the orange bags and reflective vests. Marched the one mile stretch of turf and scrounged up about 20 bags of senseless litter. Couple of dead critters, one driver's license, one license plate. No sachels of $$, rats! The roadside looks fab now, tho. Thanks a bazillion to all the Veloers who showed up. We'll do it again in about 6 months. Look for our sign soon on the section of well-bicycled road.

Litter pickup was followed by team ride through the Trace and Chute. A beautiful sight to behold, 10 Veloers in Tiger stripes on paceline. Like poetry in motion. Heck, we're starting to look like the REAL DEAL. See ya for Trek ride!
