Do you carry a weapon?

[PpPete]

I sometimes fantasise about mounting a BB gun on my handlebars.
Set to fire a "tap" of thee shots from a thumb switch.
Fixed aim: 15deg right from direction of travel, 20 deg below horizontal;
Just for retaliation against close passes.

As I ride Campag I may need to rethink the thumb switch idea...., or have safety lock for club-runs

i have the power of dance to deflect any would be assailants .

I agree , these bad boy moves never fail to get me out of trouble ......

 

[Longshot]

a fixed blade or a folding blade longer than 3'' WITHOUT due reason to ''carry'' = 5-7 years in the nick

Well, that's a relief for those guys in the picture posted earlier... they're safe.

I always carry a small Axe with me at all time as Ray Mears said that the most important item to have in a survival situation was an Axe.

That photograph is absolutely extraordinary, I can't even begin to imagine what it must have been like being there. I'm glad I won't have to find out.

Where did you find that photo?

I found it while looking for info about my great uncle, who's remains have just been found in France (new road construction) having lain there since he fell on the 1st July 1916. He was identified by his dog tags.Many family theory's about his fate have now been resolved. They are Army Cyclist Corps.

I did not really research this branch of the Army as it was a vague connection to what I was looking for. I can tell you there was about 10 Cyclist Regiments.
