Biker Uses GPS For Line Art, Makes Baltimore His Own Personal Etch-A-Sketch

Biking can be a great way to get around, or stay in shape, or just have a little fun, but I’ll bet you never considered that it could be a way to doodle. Neither have I, but WallyGPX has, and he’s gotten quite good at it. By plotting intricate rides around the Baltimore area, WallyGPX — real name Michael J. Wallace — has GPS-painted dozens and dozens of images using the city like a giant Etch-A-Sketch. He’s been doing it a while, but he just got a surge of attention when the official Angry Birds Twitter account made note of their favorite piece of his.

Wallace already has quite the collection, which you can check out in its entirety on TwitPic or at his website, and get ready for more, because he shows no sign of stopping. You’d be hard-pressed to find someone with more interesting exercise habits.
