Just drove down Iron Point and there are a bunch of orange, spray painted bikes at almost every intersection. They are chained to the signal poles. I know what it means when there is a white painted bike or ghost bike. But I've never seen orange ones. Any idea?

Is it possibly a Bike Share type of thing?
Possibly...

Whether active duty, retired, national guard or reserve - is someone who, at one point in their life, wrote a blank check made payable to "The United States of America" for an amount "up to and including their life".
That is HONOR, and there are way too many people in this country who no longer understand it.

Googled "orange bikes" and saw this:
"What's up with orange bikes?"
http://patch.com/sou...pa/orange-bikes
Read that and followed the link within to www.orangetheoryfitness.com, looked up locations and see a new one is coming to the Palladio. So there you have it.

They also had a guy in an orange "morphsuit" walking around during the Wednesday night Palladio concert last week (and probably tonight as well), and they had an orange (inside and out) compressed VW bus on display. I guess their branding revolves around the color orange.

Yes, like "Superstar" above, I just read that its a new way of advertising for the OrangeTheory Fitness thats coming to the Palladio. I thought it was an odd way of advertising but I guess its catching some attention.
