Hey commuters!

Does anyone need one of these? They are brand new and I've got about nine of them. One size fits all. US delivery only please.



My gift to you if it's going to keep you safe.

Please post here that you want one so we don't have any issues with distribution and please PM me your address.

Likewise. I'd offer takeout Chinese food in exchange for one of these if I was going to take you up on your fine offer.

I would like one, if you have any extras. Thanks for the offer! I'd be happy to offer you some $$ to cover shipping, at least!

Thank you all. I was able to get a bunch of them and figured I'd pass it along to whoever needs them. Would rather have everyone ride safely.

Please PM me your address. Thanks for the offer but they are light, only cost under $2.00 to send. No biggie.
