Contrails on the Pavement

April 1, 2009

Contrails on the Pavement I stumbled upon this really cool device called the Contrail. Basically, it applies chalk to the rear tire of your bike so that you leave a trail behind you, and enables bikers to reclaim shared space on the road. It’s a nice way of getting folks to pay attention to us two-wheelers while having fun with it.

Developed by Brooklyn-based Studio Gelardi, Contrail was created as part of last year's Design21 Power to the Pedal Design Competition, where it was a finalist.

We like bikes and we art, so we like this!
