So what does an 'Asphalt Angel' look like?

**Oakie** · 22nd August 2006, 18:49

I've seen references to 'Asphalt Angels' a few times recently as a sort of bikers' guardian angel. Started thinking that it might be kind of nice to have a tiny asphalt angel painted somewhere on my bike ... not because I believe it would necessarily keep me safer ... but perhaps just as acknowledgement that sometimes all that stands between us and disaster is a bit of luck. Anyway, has anyone seen an image of such a thing? (Google was no help). I guess if not, I can always get an arty friend to sketch up something appropriate.

That has potential. Thanks for the suggestion.

If you get it done, can you have another one of a guy on a cruiser with the angel?

Want to put one on my bike now.

I've now had a bit of a look and all I could find was this rather 70's version. I like Waylander's suggestion, tho.

Have to be carefull it doesn't get mistaken for this though...

My daughter has a friend who's an art freak (designs T shirts and stuff for a living). She's txting her now to ask if she'd mind doing a few sketches. If anyone has any other suggestions as to what an asphalt angel might look like ... fire them this way.
