K - so it's first thing in the morning and yer on your way to work. Zippin' into the local convenience store ya grab a coffee ana pack o'smokes, tappin' yer foot as the lil ol' lady in front of you buys sixteen lottery tickets... one at a time.
Finally you pay for your breakfast of champions and flee - rounding the corner you see the inevitable flock of gawkers staring at yer bike, waiting to ambush with a thousand questions. Normally you'd love any excuse to gab about your pride and joy, but your boss is growing impatient with your arrival time's gradual entropy.
"Ya-ya-it's great, VROOM!" Isn't always the impression you wanna leave, they love your bike and just want one of there own. Spewing a website address sounds like 001010001 to most folks, I never have a pen and paper handy - and neither do they.
Enter Bike Cards, an idea stolen from the liveaboard community's "Boat Cards" - they would make simple business cards with all the pertinent information and a pic of their boat. These aren't particularly fancy but they get the job done, I'll prolly make shinier ones when I "get the time."
You may wish to include such personals as your full name, email, etc. *shrug* I would rather leave that as a later option, just tellin' the person if I wanna... as there seem to be some strange folks about lol, with that in mind - I left the back blank for scribbled notations.
the latest incarnation;
BTW - if anyone has made these before or decides to make their own, please post 'em - I'd love to see 'em
