Your Message In Chalk At The Tour

[El Imbatido]

Lance and Livestrong have created some super-duper machine to write your chalk messgae on the road at the tour

http://www.nike.com/nikeos/p/livestrong/en_US/chalk_messages


I'm just worried about what might get written on the road. I can just picture it now in huge letters on the road

"LA EPO" or
"LA = Doper"
And everything else he gets called daily in places like this forum.

Im sure they will probably have some sort of censoring machine or some poor guy sitting there proof reading every single message

In all seriousness though, i think it souds like a good idea

I hope it's different from the chalk his fans used at the Tour of California. They wrote with at near the finish lines and it made a dusty yellow mess that was bad for the riders and spectators.

I thought this topic would have been flooded with lance fanboys and lance haters by now. Not that im complaining, the peace and quiet is good but it makes me nervous and uneasy like something is gonna blow.

I am neither, but at the risk of feeding the wolves, let me say this:

It's always a little sad to see corporations take formerly spontaneous gestures of public expressions and turn them into shallow marketing tools.

OTOH if other companies take up the idea, we could add something kinda wacky to the Tour cavalcade--half a dozen "chalkbots", decorated with team logos, boomboxes, flashing lights, spinning hubcaps and "pumping" shock absorbers.

I personally liked seeing the large schlong that was drawn on the road a few years back...that was hilarious.

A bit basic but I would write:

Blood is red, coke is white, be careful what you take tonight!

Too long but catchy nonetheless.

P.S. is nonetheless correct or is it none the less?

Epostrong?

I saw the yellow chalk on the road today and my first thought was, was it the livestrong/lance writing machine. Any ideas?

U.S. coverage is pretty good at editing out the giant phalluses in their evening coverage. They tend to edit out a lot of stuff.

I say we combine a giant yellow phallus and the word "Armschlong".
