It is a cool vid though. Those are REAL messengers chasing him through
the streets too...

8hrs left in the day... bwahaha

A guy at work has one of the Lance Armstrong Foundation t-shirts with
"Live Strong" across the front. I assume profits are going to cancer
research..

Know where I can get some bright yellow road rims?

Yer! It clicked 5 nanoseconds after I pressed "submit reply".

Are you going to let us see your Vegemite Bike when it's complete?

Check the "Hip's Fixie blah blah" thread

It's not going to be too Vegemite as I couldn't find any stickers for it
and I'm not going to spend time/money painting it up like a Vegemite
jar. I'll just try and keep with the black, red, yellow theme..

Maybe a "VEGEMITE" text sticker on the downtube..

(back to the Ad)

I liked the "we are all bikers / honour guard" near the beginning.

Thought he was riding more like a racer, and not a vehicular cyclist.

Still on the ad... I've just noticed that a rider goes down during the
messeger rush. It's only a couple of frames, when Lance is riding
towards us and the messengers are coming round the corners. Look on the
right hand side and you can see someone loose it... I think he's the
real hero!

Does anyone know where I can download the ad. I can extract the one from
the Nike site.

I was about to post that when i read this!! Ive watched it...i dont
know...30 times!!!, but whose counting, and one of the messengers does
indeed come a cropper in the background!

Obviously those are messenger actors and not REAL messengers as a
messenger would never stack it in such an unco way. Washing out on a
corner.....how preposterous!!!

Maybe trying to keep up with Lance or the excitement of being in a Nike
ad was just too much.

The main thing is, why didn't they take it out. Maybe they didn't see it
or, more likley, thought nobody would notice.

It makes it more real so they may have left it in on purpose... that's
what I would have done.

Whatever... I want to ride every time I see it.
