Notice that it's a mountain bike, not a road bike. For those that consider their bicycle an assault vehicle: http://bikeportland.org/2007/08/22/fight-back-stencil-sparks-dialogue... This stencil was (probably) in response to a couple of riders getting run down by a whack-o in SE Portland. Instead of saying "hey, some psychopath ran down a couple bicyclists," it turned in to "fight the power" and bicycles need their own roads, etc., etc. Mayor Sam Adams probably put on his helmet and appeared outraged for the cameras on his Globe or whatever that thing is he rides. Really, the perpetrator was a nut job. http://www.oregonlive.com/news/index...onally_ra.html But you never, ever want to pass up a chance to be outraged about the suffering of bicyclists. Just to make the point, I now wear the new Bell thorny-crown helmet. http://www.myholylandgiftshop.com/14...and-jerusalem/ It also promotes attentiveness, because if you do fall on your head, it hurts like a MF. -- Jay Beattie. |

Please consider the survival rate of philosophers and prophets before going on a public relations campaign on behalf of suffering bicyclists.

I suspect something was lost in the translation. It should be a crown of horns, not thorns, which are far more effective: http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&tbm=isch&q=helmet+horns Buy one of these: http://www.amazon.com/McToy-Viking-Helmet/dp/B000FH9EQO Remove the horns and reattach them to your cycling helmet. (Personally, I prefer Micky Mouse ears, but they're not very aerodynamic). -- Jeff Liebermann 150 Felker St #D http://www.LearnByDestroying.com Santa Cruz CA 95060 http://802.11junk.com Skype: JeffLiebermann AE6KS 831-336-2558 |
