WARNING cyclist do not try and out run the cops

[mustang1]

Notice the copper on the left side pull out his tazer?
You get the impression he really wanted to use it.

Fify:

In any case maybe u r right. In a NY case, +1 for cops.

If he had stolen your bike and your wife in the process.. Would you agree?

That's contradictory; I'd only be upset at the loss of one of them!

Looked like a perfectly reasonable rugby tackle to me, lost a little bark, but much better than tazer or a baton in the spokes.

Yeah, should have been wearing a helmet!

Mod Edit: Quote of offensive post removed

Full face helmet then?

How do you know the scum bag has a brother ...

Are we not all brothers under the great cult of cycling?

Except of course the girls who are sisters, or you are using the term 'brother' as a colloquial, inclusive term for both sexes, in which case the girls are not sisters but brothers after all. Then of course there may be the sisters who don't want to be included as brothers and should of course retain the right to identify their gender and be referred to as sisters..... and of course in an inclusive cult like cycling it is of course correct to call a brother a sister or a sister a brother if they feel that is the way to identify their gender

I would have liked to see the cops use a stinger spiked device but for bikes, smaller than the ones they use for cars. Maybe I could design one which doubles up as a copper's belt: Dragon's Den awaits?

Failing that I fully expect to see a cop rugby tackling a souped up getaway car on the next episode of "America's Most Badass Scumbags". The precedent has been set.

Thats nothing. In Sheffield they'd have just run him over with their car:

Already there, but a stinger can't be deployed against a bike, due to safety reasons
