I thought y'all needed to see the fenders I made up for Ole Blue.

I plan on going at them with a magic marker tonight so the former campaign signs are a little less readable.

Were those former campaign signs in someone else's garden :D ?

No, no, no! Local election signs done with in August. :p

Cool! You have to post pictures when you've colored them. :)

I'm about to go test them out in the rain!

That is a most-excellent recycling job! Hey, where did you get the shark light? Love it!

The shark light came from REI. They had other little critters too.

Coming home it was raining steadily, so they got an excellent test. I had a couple of stops to make so I put a few miles on them.

First I just rode along and watched the water being turned by the front fender. Then I started running through any standing water to see if the extra water would mess them up. They held up fine.

& I didn't have a skunk stripe either. :D

Not only did he not win, I didn't vote for him!

That's why she cut his sign all to bits and used it for fenders...he wasn't worthy. :D

Oh, everybody's worthy - for something! Even if it's deflecting spray!

He WAS a judge, got beat, was trying to get back on the bench.

He is effective at deflecting spray. ;)
