The workout of the week,

Ditching the road.
What you’ll need,
A dirt road,
Hill,
Hard rain,
Energy

This workout is a lot like the raking workout except that this workout should be done outside and only during a rainstorm. * Starting at the top of the hill, follow the natural route of the water and gently rake dirt in the direction you want the water to go. Continue working your way down the hill leaving small ditches on the road that will act as speed bumps during dry weather and are also a good way to gather parts from new cars as they are rattled off. Pay no attention to the cars backed up waiting to get through while you work. If it is lightning out please use extreme caution. Perhaps it would be best to not use a metal rake in such cases, and try not to point the end of the rake straight up into the air as this could act like a lightning rod. Be careful and enjoy your wet workout.


*This workout shouldn’t need to be done if the road is graded properly. However, if your road is dirt and you have two novice’s grading it, this will, on occasion, need to be done; usually in the middle of the night.

If you happen to find a muffler along the echo trail...we'll take it.

If lighting does hit your rake handle will it make that cool glass thing in the dirt? You know like from the movie, Sweet Home Alabama? Have you tried it? Maybe you should think about it.
