Bubble Bike - its blooming marvellous!
« on: June 10, 2008, 05:43:39 PM »
Remember when you had hours of fun with a playing card and a clothes peg? By putting a playing card in your bicycle spokes and riding along it made a superb noise and I would love to see my neighbours faces turn red with rage as I rode up and down outside their house - or was that just me?

Well, this fun little gadget that spits out bubbles as you ride along on your bike.  However, it does much more than that.  Within each bubble is a tiny little flower seed, which sounds fun and pretty.  Yet every single one of those seeds that ends up producing a plant is slowly eating away at the concrete.  Which means every single week your neighbour is going to be outside with weed spray trying to keep them down.

All the while you’re just going back through and planting more.  The gadget isn’t actually meant for sinister tasks, it’s supposed to be inspirational.  However, I seriously doubt that the owners of the pavement you just pedalled over would agree with that.

The bubbles use natural ingredients, vegetable based soap which combines with the seeds to make a 'dissolving nugget' as they call it.  The mixture makes it so that each bubble can hold a seed.

I'm just trying to fill your day with fun facts that you can use to impress a friend at a dinner function.  ::)

It's my guess Wiz that you have become a first year freshers undegraduate, they all have unlimited time and the inclination for outrageous fun.

What other explanation could there be?   8)

This sounds like something Claw_Grrrl was telling me about. Guerrilla Gardening.
