Last week, I hadn't heard of an LPR (automated license plate reader) or Flock camera. With the appearance of a solar-powered stationary LPR near the intersection of state routes 235 and 309--which has been noted on social media--I asked Hardin County and Ada law enforcement officials for some background.

Are you looking for that exciting bike ride to ride that creates the well-known O-H-I-O?
FROM FACEBOOK__Registration is live for the 10th Annual Cursive Ohio Charity Ride on September 5 organized by Ada farmer Austin Heil: https://www.bikereg.com/cursiveohio.
A 6th-generation farmer, Heil writes, "This year the funds will support https://agrability.osu.edu/. The Ohio AgrAbility Project is part of a national program of the U.S. Department of Agriculture that assists farmers and other agricultural workers with disabilities by providing the resources and support they need to live independently and continue or return to work in production agriculture."
The bike ride includes rest stops with water and snacks roughly every 15 miles. There will be a lunch with smoked brisket and sides along with homemade ice cream.
