  This just in: Bikes Against Bush


From Shannon Holman:

Want to send a message to the RNC next week? How about sending it
wirelessly and having it distributed in chalk by bicycle?
I'm crazy about this project and hope you will be too.

Bike Writer Pedals for Protest

"New Yorker Joshua Kinberg is a bike messenger of a different stripe.
Instead of ferrying legal papers between lawyers, he uses a homemade,
wireless, bicycle-mounted dot-matrix printer to spray protest messages
in the street.

Kinberg will be taking his road-spraying bicycle to the Republican
National Convention in New York this fall, where he'll ride around
spraying [chalk] slogans submitted over the Web and beamed wirelessly
to the bike."
