It seems like someone is breaking glass purposely in certain spots (mostly at the exit of turns). I know that some of the local population is not happy with all the riders invading "their" roads because I am on that towns Facebook page. It could just be random but it's been pretty consistent lately. I think the club sweeps up the glass on Friday evenings because it is usually clear on Saturday mornings. The glass is back and by midweek I am familiar with the location of the glass but I always forget until it's too late and I go through it. So far, I've been pretty lucky with only one flat that didn't present itself until the next morning. Sorry, just a little rant.
Wow! That's just mean. vicious and unfriendly.

Why do people do that? Heaven forbid other people should be able to enjoy themselves without this kind of provocation going on. I guess some small-minded people would prefer to drag others down to their level of a**holic behavior rather than rising up with integrity.

Any way to get the city/town leadership to do something abt it? Good on the bike club for taking the high road.
