    I've seen the ghost bike site and it is really amazing.....haunting.....

    It's not our intention to place a bike though. There has been a custom made wrought iron piece placed there that is somehow just perfect.

    The Gages managed to get some new "share the road" signs for some key cycling cooridors here in Phoenix. I don't know how they did it, but they are cool! I hear they are 8 ft by 3 ft. They say share the road on one side with a bike next to a car and then it says "bikes get 3 feet" on the other side. I think you can see a mock up of the sign in one of these pics:

    From the phoenix city website it looks like they got a city councilman on board to pass a resolution or some sort of thing. If you google "new share the road signs phoenix" you will get a link to the website announcing the unveiling. Very cool signs IMO.

    Good luck!
