Any British cyclist who is not armed every time he gets on his bike, is a
fool.

It is folly to rely on a helmet cam, because this bully boy was content to
back down and drive away, but sooner or later, a psychopath is going to
beat a cyclist to death, and take his camera.

The cure for road rage is called 'Smith & Wesson', but that's not always
possible, so for the love of `echo $DEITY`, carry a D-lock!

A bicycle is probably quite effective - if not in attack at least in
defence. Just hold it up between yourself and the aggressor, or raise
it above your head and bring it down on them to cause discomfort and
entanglement.

I would welcome any footpath riding cyclist doing just that, I've always
said that I'd give the cyclist first slap.
Then, it's *my* turn.

Plan B - if you have a bicycle with a rear rack - is to grasp the rear
rack, and swing the bike around at head level, two hundred and seventy
degrees, aiming it at the psychopath's face. Once he goes down, aim a
very hard kick at his testicles, before bringing your entire weight down on
the front of his throat, through your knee.

Yet a cyclist attacking a woman with his fists or dlock would be fine
and dandy. Talk about double standards.

Where has any cyclist on this newsgroup ever suggested that a cyclist
'attack' a woman (or man) with fists or - indeed - with any weapon?

Why do you trolling psychopaths need to lie?

Talk about double standards.


Yes, let's.

1,500 deaths per year, and about another million injured every year by
psychopaths.

Around 3 killed per year and fifty injured by cyclists.

Let's talk about 'double standards', you ****ing thick arsewipe.
