my design MISSING started out as an actual flyer that I put up around my dorm when my bike was “stolen” earlier this year... Later, I found out it had been towed because I chained it to a fence with a "no bikes" sign on it. Whoops!
Here's the original flyer:

and here are the 300 million bikes I drew before I got the right one:

So anyways, thanks so much to everyone that made this design happen! I felt like I was destined for failure doing a giant block of barely-legible text, but the message had to get out there. Can't wait to wear this and stand still for minutes at a time while people read it. Basically, what I am trying to say is be careful where you chain your bikes.

one of my favorite threadless designs ever... it echos my own feelings about similar situations, the lateral ways in which i wish to deal with them.It even makes me want to be your friend!!!

proud of threadless for printing it and love the irony...

now you can go buy a new bike:)
