Default Think! Biker

Just seen the new Think! Biker advertising campaign.

Was good actually although a bit short and the message was slightly confusing cos I was looking at the messages thinking its a dating site ad. lol

I am never sure about most of their campaigns to be honest. The signs normally lead to a good road though, but normally a slightly overhyped and overly policed one.

Saw this the other week, I liked it, different to the usual bunch. Reminded me of the one where the bloke gets advanced warning like "mud on the road" etc. They tend to be the ones that people remember rather than a bike going into the side of a car.

We've been looking for some of those for ages, you actually have a really good point there, not that we're likely to hit a bike

Wish I had a neon sign like that, don't think the SV electrics could take it though!

I love that ad! I think its brilliant, hopefully stops people from thinking that all bikers are fat hairy testosterone nut cases shows that some of us are people just going about our business. I think people are taking note as well, there seems to be more people moving over in traffic but that ould just be me wanting to think its working if ya know what I mean.

I doubt it, they had a buggy drive behind the bike with the batteries for the advert!
