ideas:

Decorative clear-glass vase table centerpiece

Donate to a middle school for games / learning how to play marbles

Put them in a fish bowl. Add water and goldfish. Beautiful!

Add them to a water feature / fountain / pool as a fun & unexpected prize for kids to find.

Crush them and add as a layer to the top of your new sidewalk for an arty touch.

Actual Marble marbles? Epoxy them together into a scaled-down statue of David

Glass marbles? Cement together for quasi-stain glass windows and use as garden art (or actual windows)

Drop them all in the gas tank of your enemy.

Leave them in random places, slowly, all over the city (grocery store shelf, walk signal button, tip jar, at the gas pump...) and, day by day, make someone's day.

or

Let them be free: roll them down Denny. The bad guys from Home Alone will likely appear, mid-escape from some heist, and you'll have saved the day ;)

Dried smoked salmon.
Fresh roasted Coffee beans.
Microbrew (Elysian?).
Cedar branch.
a recent SIFF film on DVD.
Tom Douglas food on a Dale Chihuly glass plate.
An unused umbrella.

1. Keep up. Then you don't look so old.

2. Don't pant. It's less creepy. Be fit enough to bike all zen-like without getting gaspy. See also #1

3. Don't be weird. Good rule if you're trying to appear to be dating material in general, not just on bikes.

4. Try getting 'girls' out of your vocab if you mean women-your-age. If you LITERALLY mean Girls, then helping you with 'creepy' is a completely fruitless endeavor.

5. read some Qland pickup line advice: see comments

Well, that's a hell of a stereotype you got going there. What is that, circa, 1994?

snark A:
They detect your skepticism and decide to mess with your head.

Real A:
Actual ND's are very useful and helpful health practioners.
If you're getting nothing but "quacks", ask for cred like their degree and school, and then look them up.
Also, there are more "ratemydoctor" websites than I have patience to list, so go use a search engine and check them out yourself.

Legos. Big, non-choking size - duplo maybe. 20 bucks or less = tons of smiles and occupied time. i.e. parents usually appreciate them too.

Loud noisy battery-operated cheapass shit = no, no, no, no.
