BUG OUT,SURVIVAL Bikes

[Fab Foodie]

Maintenance seems more important than brand name, in this situation.

... And fear ....

My neighbour is a Police officer who has recently given up smoking and bought a Decathlon bike, determined to get fit. Last weekend we cycled over on the flat Fylde and when I pointed out Heysham nuclear power station he remarked that that's one of the designated national assembly points to which all Police officers are supposed to make their way if law and order breaks down in the UK. Maybe this is why he is training up as a cyclist?

And where are the non-police assembly points?

So having read this thread very quickly bug out bikes appear to be bike-packing - with guns. Yes?

I do like the fat bikes though!! They appeal to my rugged manliness

I just thought of a new bug out bike, what about a submersible bug out bike and trailer. Imagine the scenario, there you are cycling out in the wilds and you spot a group of zombies, trapped you spot a lake or river and hey presto, you have your new escape route, just simply head for the river and you vanish, I have been running some test and so far so good, the only thing left to sort out are the buoyance issues on the trailer. I have written to the Ministry of Defence and they are keen to try out my idea, at the moment they are doing dry land tests.

I could pull one behind my trike.

I couldn't survive the nuclear winter without a properly kitted bike

Shaken, not stirred?

Overkill! All you need is a couple of leather straps (& £25+shipping, thank you etsy!)

We don't need assembly points because we will all be on our bug out bikes heading for Box Hill.

It's a tried and tested strategy.

That's a very nice trike.

A note about the wine, celebrating Rex Goliath, the 47 pound rooster. Isn't that a sign of the aforementioned apocalypse? Supposedly, this rooster belonged to a Texas circus, and weighed 47 pounds, but the largest rooster I've ever heard of was 23 pounds.

That wooden holder could double up as a cheese board.

Works every time...

Rule #1-Never run out of Colt 45
