Issac J. Bailey | Bike rallies demonstrate our freedom to get on each other’s nerves

A sign on a large beachfront home had a couple of our readers irate, so perturbed they snapped a picture and emailed it to us.

The sign read, Show us your um, bare chest.

I suspect it wasnt intended for me or any other man and has long been one of the most popular Bike Week catch phrases.

Kindly distribute this to our town leaders, the email read. Not only do we residents and property owner have to endure the noise and loose [sic] our sleep but now the children are effected [sic]. I would like to know how this promotes a family beach. Looks like greed of sales tax is more important than our values.

The use of the word values is instructive, because I sympathize with the sentiment.

I have two small kids who are as inquisitive as they come.

And they notice everything everything.

A sign like that is unlikely to miss their notice. What type of values am I trying to instill? And do signs such as this make that more difficult?

Im raising them along the Grand Strand, one of the nations most popular resort areas.

Though this is our place of residence for 365 days of the year, for about 14 million tourists, it is the devils playground a few days or weeks every summer season.
