Pepper spray - Which one?

Recommended Posts

Can anyone shed light on this subject. What are the options. Are there sprays to be avoided. Are there sprays specifically suited to cyclists; to runners? I never pay attention to the marketing/packaging; they are so misleading most of the time.

spotmans warehouse sells a pretty potent one, that comes with a attachment for a bicycle.

No Michael, a spray that will take out a runner will do for a cyclist too - but just cos you're out of action for a while you shouldn't be so vindictive.

 

Saw one at the Rand Show a couple of years back that ignites as it sprays - a bit too racey for me I'm afraid.

 

But maybe it would work on Mampara's chicken - Flame'nSpice (it's flamin' nice).

One of the girls at work forgot her pepper spray in the car while it was parked in the sun. The can exploded and smashed the windscreen, and painted the car red inside. Luckily she wasn't in at the time.

 

3 weeks later I still got a craving for pepper steak pie while driving with her LOL

as long as it burns the living daylights out of an attacker it will work....be warned....you will most likely also get a sniff or two when using it.  Tongue

People, please! Get serious. There's this hottie in the office who is a runner and can't always run with a group. I am concerned for her well being and suggested she carry some sort of defence. Are there any Lady Hubbers out there with some sensible advice? Amateur, Slowpoke, Chilli Pepper!!!, BEE, Wonder Woman etc. PLEASE HELP!

 

No, I can't post a pic, you will have to take my word! Cool

Buy one and do the tazer-test; spray yourself in the face and if your not incapacitated for 15 minutes at least, try another brand Thumbs%20Up

 

Good luck LOL

Met a cyclist on the road a few years ago. He was from Hawaii. Said on the road they always ride with pepper spray, otherwise the cyclists get assaulted by drunken locals (during the day!) Dead
