White Rock's Weekly Advice

We finally stopped and asked! Almost every Sunday that we've been out at White Rock Lake, we've noticed a small group of people sitting on the west side of the lake next to the sign, "Free Advice". And each time we pedal by I wonder what in the world it's all about. Well, it's a better story than I could have imagined!

Two gentlemen thought it would be an interesting social experiment to offer free advice sessions on one Sunday afternoon ... over 12 years ago! Roderick MacElwain and Neal Caldwellare the self-appointed "free advice guys" of White Rock Lake and nearly every Sunday for the past 12 years, the men have manned their help station near Jackson Point (offering advice on every imaginable topic). Today, we stopped and asked Roderick his advice on this evening's weather. His clever, eccentric response included the forcast and advised us not to ride around the lake with lightening forcasted around midnight. We'll certainly stop for their advice on deeper subjects next time we cross paths. ;o) Click here for their full story.
