Bahaha, now you've revealed your hiding spot! If I see that tree, I'll know that there's a free camo net under it!

An unofficial chapter of the popular Dull Men's Club.
1. Relevant commentary on your own dull life. Posts should be about your own dull, lived experience. This is our most important rule. Direct questions, random thoughts, comment baiting, advice seeking, many uses of "discuss" rarely comply with this rule.
2. Original, Fresh, Meaningful Content.
3. Avoid repetitive topics.
4. This is not a search engine
Use a search engine, a tradesperson, Reddit, friends, a specialist Facebook group, apps, Wikipedia, an AI chat, a reverse image search etc. to answer simple questions or identify objects. Also see rule 1, “comment baiting”.
There are a number of content specific communities with subject matter experts who can help you.
Some other communities to consider before posting:
5. Keep it dull. If it puts us to sleep, it’s on the right track. Examples of likely not dull: jokes, gross stuff (including toes), politics, religion, royalty, illness or injury, killing things for fun, or promotional content. Feel free to post these elsewhere.
6. No hate speech, sexism, or bullying No sexism, hate speech, degrading or excessively foul language, or other harmful language. No othering or dehumanizing of anyone or negativity towards any gender identity.
7. Proofread before posting. Use good grammar and punctuation. Avoid useless phrases. Some examples: - starting a post with "So" - starting a post with pointless phrases, like "I hope this is allowed" or “this is my first post” Only share good quality, cropped images. Do not share screenshots of images; share the original image.

But you don't know the tree I'm under of watching you.
Gets tangled in net, falls down ravine, rescuers unable to find anything
I just want to get one and cover myself with it, so I can be invisible everywhere I walk.
"Just a blob of fake vegetation moving down the sidewalk, nothing to see here."
I would definitely lose my bike
Can we see it not in action? I'm curious as to what it looks like in front of a wall or something.
Sure!
Woah, thanks for posting this. I'm a bit embarrassed to admit it, but in all the pictures I couldn't tell which is which, haha. So it's good to know what it looks like.
If I was walking through the woods and saw a bike standing against a tree I'd think, "Hey, that's someone's bike."
If I was walking through the woods and stumbled across a bike on the ground under a bunch of leaves, I'd think, "Hey, someone must have abandoned this bike. Free bike!"
Well it was locked to the tree as well.
Why do y'all keep posting interesting shit here??
None of my friends seem to care so I assume the average person finds it uninteresting
So post your friends here. They're uninteresting!
Yeah! I came here to see dull men
And they would be right this not merely interesting. This is fascinating ;)
The reason we all come to Lemmy it seems, people in our lives sometimes just don't give a shiiiit about some of our stuff ಥ_ಥ
No one in my life thinks CRTs are cool. They're asking why I'd want those big junkers.
Because I like electron beams shooting at my face thats why!
Retro consoles on a CRT is heaven.
This is downright interesting.
The trick is to find it interesting, but to be dull. Some people here aren't doing that right.
Took me a moment to realize this was two images side by side and was like "I can still easily see the bike on the left there."
Very cool. Are there no good bike communities yet? Grow niche communities, grow!
There are. I guess I just didn't think this relates to bikes really. It just happened to be a bike I was stashing.
Is offloading what those fat tyres are for? I've never managed to ask anyone.
The big tires are basically like snowshoes. With a normal mountain bike you can't really ride in snow except on hard compacted trails, but with fat tires you can - up to a point. They help on mud and sand too, but honestly they're more of a hindrance than an advantage the rest of the year.
Still, it makes riding feel like driving a monster truck. You can go pretty much anywhere and you have infinite grip.
I thought they were for sand, but I am a noted moron.
My dude, that's just a tree! You can't fool us!
I would loose my bike. Thats cool how well this works.
I would accidentally ride home on a bush.
Giggity
Hi-ooooooh
Maybe you should decorate the camo net with some blinking Christmas lights. That way, it would be easier to find the bike later.
That looks really really good. I feel like you'd have to stumble over it to see it if you weren't looking.
Few other pics of a different spot.
I thought this was a cross view image at first and my eyes were very unhappy.
I tried it for shits and giggles and I couldn’t cross my eyes enough, they were very unhappy as described
Will you post here when you can't find it one day? oh please oh please!
looks effective
Nice, thanks for the idea!
Weights way less than a proper lock does too!
Until it gets wet
This is almost like a raincoat fabric or similar. I doubt it absorbs any water. It weighs 350g dry.
This is a great idea for bikepacking! Sometimes it's tough to find a legit camping spot and you have to stealth it, think I'll order one
Hope you have a good short term memory!
(Don't admit you use gps)
TIL I want a camo net. I mostly ride in the city, but darn it, I want that.
You can get one for 50 euros or less. This is only 1.5m x 2m
Why not just hide it up in a tree? Cheaper and people don't usually look very high up.
That sounds very difficult
"Nothing in the world is worth having or worth doing unless it means effort, pain, difficulty… I have never in my life envied a human being who led an easy life."
Sure, but I mean it's going to be very hard hoisting the bike up (I don't even know how you'd do it, alone and in a reasonable amount of time) and it will be more visible as a consequence. Nothing against hard work in general (or you!), I think it's just a bad idea
