How to remove this mark?

Options
Ok, some cleaning advice needed, please!

The other day, my wife took DD's bike out of the back of our car (people carrier). In doing so, she rubbed the rubber bike handle on the grey cloth (sort've) material on the roof, leaving a great big black rubber mark.

Any ideas how to get this out?

    Hmm, have you tried using a soft artist's eraser (like a steadler rubber, from WHSmith, about 50p) to remove it? Theoretically the mark is just particles of rubber so using soft eraser might roll it off (do a sample area first).

    Haven't tried anything yet - wanted the expert opinions first!
