The perfect cure for those who ride on the wrong side..........

 

Both are catey products and they both work verrrrry well......

 

Those on the RHS are special pedals that allow a brief glimpse up the skirts of pedestrians, Right?

 

I have concluded that there is no right side of the road; both are freakin' deadly to cyclists. After a few close shaves, I decided that when cycling near the edge of the road(I almost never venture near the actual lane unless I cannot avoid doing so), I would face the oncoming traffic so I can see what the AH drivers are doing and take evasive action. On the very first outing, a Tipper truck hit a vicious bump in the road about 30m ahead of me, thus causing the swinging tailgate to open and dump a few hundred kg's of rocks/gravel in the road. Me at 40kph + said gravel at 20-30kph made for an interesting meeting. I was fortunate to escape with some minor scratches and the same on the bike.

 

The Baseball bat looks good, but would be a little difficult to conceal. Imagine being stopped and asked "What is that thing sticking out of your cycling trouser, Sir?" Is it a Weapon?." "Why, yes Officer, some say it is."

 

I'd better go home. Good Evening to all and may our 2nd official day back at work in 2013 be better and more positive than today was.

If you are worried about the mirrors being on the wrong side, I have a six pack of coffee mugs for left handed people, make me an offer, never been used.
