Friday 10/8/10 Painting the Roads……..
Friday 10/8/10
Today our Bike Club was meeting at Tinicum Park (45 minutes from Ivyland)
to mark roads for an upcoming bicycling event:
The Covered Bridge Ride
|
The box is Michael’s creation to hold road painting supplies.

Me & Joyce with Howard.
Howard is in charge of organizing the road markings.
|
 |
|
Michael’s box was quite handy
|
 |
|
the box even had a spot to hang the stencils
|
 |
|
oops – we did this one WRONG!
it was upside down it should say CB…
not backwards BC
|
 |
|
CB – this is correct!
Each color designates a different ride.
Green is the 50 mile HILLY & orange was 33 mile ride.
|
 |
|
Joyce & me at the first covered bridge.
Are there Covered Bridges were you live?
|
 |
|
not a bad place to be “working” –
it was a GORGEOUS day!!

our road markings

cleaning off the stencils. You have to do this a few times
while stenciling because they get all “painty”
|
 |
|
I LOVE YOU BEAR. statue on the side of the road….

fully staffed & stocked rest areas where you can
refill your water bottle & fuel up with
home-baked cookies & more

|
TAG! you’re it….

|
 |
|
after painting the town Green & Orange – we went
to Galasso’s Pizza in Frenchtown. If you live near
here – you must GO. If you don’t live near here –
It IS WORTH the trip……

Arugula pizza – Oh SO Good!
