Contrail created by Studio Gelardi, is a tool that attaches to your bike’s seat tube and leaves a colorful chalk line behind you as you ride. The goal is to encourage a new cycle of biking participation by allowing the biking community to leave a unique mark on the road and to reclaim this crucial shared space.

The Contrail was a finalist in Design 21′s Pedal To The Medal competition and is not in yet in production.  [via..]

    I was waiting for my flight at the airport while reading your post. I got a lot of value out of it and it helped me pass what would have otherwise been very boring time.
