If cycling is good enough for EU leaders to arrive at summits or
whatever photo ops they cycle to in Europe, then cycling is good
enough for at least some kinds of commerce.

A bicycle delivery company, for example, should be able to order a
triangular piece of material with the company logo printed on it.
Three velcro straps allow it to be attached to the top tube, down tube
and seat tube.

Am I too late for this one?


Like most bicyclists you completely miss the point.

Advertising is about creating a brand image & reinforcing it.

Advertising on a push bike would send out a negative image.

Nobody would want to associate a product or service with the 'poor &
