Oliver Posted June 2, 2008 Posted June 2, 2008 Ok, here's something interesting...I was on my way to Tokai yesterday and there was a cyclist in front of me cruising along. We stopped at the traffic lights in front of the Blueroute shopping mall and a Black car (think it was a Hyundai Getz) nearly took this guys arm off as the driver was slowing down for the red light. I honestly though this guy was gonna get hit by the car but he managed to duck out of the way... then the fun started. He gave the driver a *SERIOUSLY* evil look as he pulled away, and then hucked up a big, green, evil alien phloem-ball thing (eew) and launched it onto the car's windscreen! I nearly fell of my bike from laughter... Ya, it's gross, but what other "weapons" do we have?? LOL!!! Oliver2008-06-02 01:26:09
Captain Fastbastard Mayhem Posted June 2, 2008 Posted June 2, 2008 HAHAHA!!!! Gets his dues? Good on him!
Oliver Posted June 2, 2008 Author Posted June 2, 2008 we need to carry eggs or something... launch them at rude drivers lol.
wessel Posted June 2, 2008 Posted June 2, 2008 I have been thinking, maybe somone must invent a shocker thing that is small, light but very potent, especially for cyclists in Africa
Weekend_Warrior Posted June 2, 2008 Posted June 2, 2008 It does sound pretty funny but the problem with that is that next time the guy in the getz is driving past a cyclist he will have even less respect for cyclist and may even go out of hiw way to be an idiot.so although it sound like a good idea to throw stuff at the cars to pi$$ off the idiot that is driving it, you may actually be causing more harm to the next guy that driver encounters.
Oliver Posted June 2, 2008 Author Posted June 2, 2008 ...got one lol... it's actually mounted to my bike!
Oliver Posted June 2, 2008 Author Posted June 2, 2008 i hear you w. warrior, but we cannot "be scared" of these guys - we need to show them that although we're on a much smaller machine, we still have as much right to be in the road as they do... they need to understand that. Maybe that driver will be more careful from now on? im sure he doesnt wanna get another loogie on his window?
RaceChick Posted June 2, 2008 Posted June 2, 2008 If we start doing things like that, (even though we would like to) it will just make drivers hate us more.
Reg Lizard Posted June 2, 2008 Posted June 2, 2008 A squirt from the old water bottle also does the trick, especially if the windows open
Tumbleweed Posted June 2, 2008 Posted June 2, 2008 it becomes expensive, but water bottles are the handiest. kritzie is one of the best proponents of this method.
Canaris Posted June 2, 2008 Posted June 2, 2008 energy juice on the windscreen. New wiperblades needed.......or marbles tossed casually over the shoulder, at oncoming traffic (old runners trick).
TNT1 Posted June 2, 2008 Posted June 2, 2008 we need to carry eggs or something... launch them at rude drivers lol. Spark plugs work better... Go straight through windscreens...
Oliver Posted June 2, 2008 Author Posted June 2, 2008 ok i got one: how about carrying bumper stickers with really arb things on them that we can just "paste" onto offending drivers? hmm, like "Steer clear ,I've got Herpes" or "I'm a loser" or "I hate this country - throw something at me"LOL!
Bionic man Posted June 2, 2008 Posted June 2, 2008 A squirt from the old water bottle also does the trick' date=' especially if the windows open[/quote'] That would be a serious waste of good beer and the guy/chick might be rude enough to ask for more.
