She beeped her horn and the other driver gave her a obscene gesture. I think if they put a officer in the morning rush hour and evening rush hour they would give quite a few tickets for people driving and not yield at the traffic circle.

THis is exactly the behavior I was referring to several weeks ago on the Chatham BB.

I know way too many people who’s cars have been searched in Chatham Co. to make it just a coincidence.  I have spoken to Sheriff Webster who assures me that it’s all within the job description of protecting the public.

Know your rights.   If you are pulled, they cannot search your car w/o probable cause.

Subject: Kudos to Chatham Spokes & The Chatlist

I love this chatlist and the opportunity to find out about businesses and services that are chatham-centric! A recent post by Jeff Howell about his bike repair/tune up business — Chatham Spokes — is one such example.

I contacted Jeff about my bike since spring is on the way. He is professional, prompt, honest, trustworthy, reasonable and talented. I highly recommend him! His email is chathamspokes@gmail.com.

Thanks, Jeff … and thank you Gene for this forum!
