Leave me a message
 
There's a dry-erase board on my bike. If you know where that is, leave me a message.

52 views and NOTHING! PEOPLE! dont leave s_9 hanging here.

is there a marker, or do i need to bring my own?
is there a prize, or just online fame?

anyone leave a message yet?

s_9 04-25-06 10:36 AM

I dunno...but I'm gonna go down & check it for lunch real soon.

There's a marker provided.

pitboss 04-25-06 10:42 AM

someone just ran off with the marker, huffing wildly. Next time, consider chalk. It is less addictive...

ps - cool idea!

spud 04-25-06 11:16 AM

i'm a few states away, otherwise i would leave a message at lunch on this nice sunny day.

s_9 04-25-06 12:05 PM

two messages so far. One from someone I know who was making a delivery, one anonymous one from someone who has "admired my bike for a while".

I painted the top tube of my work ride with chalkboard paint and have some chalk in a cork bar plug. Great for taking notes on the road and scheduling routes.

Can I see a pic of this whiteboard setup? I am having a hard time imagining it. Thanks.

jyossarian 04-25-06 12:40 PM

i have dry erase markers, but no white board...is yours locked securely?

s_9 04-25-06 01:53 PM

the board & marker are attached with string & packing tape. String is wrapped around the top tube and taped to the back of the board. "Securely" wouldn't quite describe it, unless my only fear is that it might blow off my bike in a strong gust of wind...

You'd better come to Sydney you martha stewart button-pushin, mouse waving, bikeophile!

If it rains I lose all of my messages and can't write on it for a while...which has made the gimmick next to useless for the last two months. Will probably be much better from here on out. My niece is also very excited whenever I visit, because she gets to draw all over my bike without me getting upset.

Anightinthewood 04-25-06 03:47 PM

will this be availible tommorow? i need some time to think of something clever to leave you with.

s_9 04-25-06 03:54 PM

it will be available until it gets stolen or I run out of string.

or if someone uses a sharpie :eek:

BadAssBiker 04-25-06 07:43 PM

Now I have something on my list to steal tommorrow.;)

s_9 04-25-06 07:51 PM

ok, that was hilarious. Leaving work today, I find many more messages on my bike. They were touching, threatening, and insulting:

"CONJO I KILL YOU"
"1 Fried rice, 2 Veggie Roll, 1 noodles"
"You = Jerkass"

I love you guys. But not just for that. Also for the seat + toptube wrapped in toilet paper, several cheap & ****ty CDs ziptied to my handlebars and seatstays, softcore porn and phone sex ads in my spokes, and the stuffed tiger ziptied to my stem. Here's a picture of the little guy:

Whoever did this (and I feel that I have a pretty good idea who did).....that was awesome.

jyossarian 04-25-06 08:19 PM

i need a headtube badge like that

morbot 04-25-06 08:32 PM

haha awesome

Nachoman 04-25-06 08:47 PM

I would just get profanity, or a note like "move your bike, it's blocking the sidewalk".

sloppy robot 04-25-06 08:51 PM

instead of leavinng a "youve been bumbiked" callinng card.. did they leave one that says "youve been burning man raver biked"?

yarr 04-25-06 09:07 PM
