Where I live (Oldsmar) there is a guy who has his own local computer repair
shop and every morning during rush hour I see him riding one of those adult
tri-cycles (the ones you see in the retirement communities) with a large
sign advertising his shop and what it does (he also wears a t-shirt with the
name and ph#). He rides up and down Tampa Rd about 100 yards on either side
of the main intersection in town and sips his coffee and lets the signage do
his talking. Tampa Rd is a major artery between Pinellas county and Tampa
(along with the Howard Frankland bridge and Courtney Campbell causeway) so
his exposure is quite large. I don't know how busy his place is, but its
gotta beat sitting at home picking toe jam.

FWIW. Cheers.
