Buggi,
I'm most terribly sorry![:I]
I tried my damndest not to use a 'he' or 'she' exclusively in any of my posts but one (just the one?)slipped through my clearly inefficient proofreading.[B)]
Where did you source the alarm? I wouldn't mind one for her indoors. There was a decidedly shady-looking bloke on the cyclepath she uses for training just the other day. He was lurking near a gate where one has to slow down and dismount to pass through. I wasn't with her and he gave her a bit of a scare.
Must also add that I've just found out she's the p@sstaking basket Rock Hard. I suppose she does demonstrate a certain charm.......
Helmetcam in attendance I trust?

Wasn't it in Iran they used to shove boiled eggs with the shells still on them, up the behinds of people for torture/slow death purposes. I truly suggest that the two animals in question be subjected to this.

That is a most peculiar suggestion.

515mm... well, an ex gave me my handgrenade one (where the lead comes out) and also i got given one that looks like a marker pen by my boss the other day (coz he's madly in lurve with me bless him) and you press the top down to set it off. for the purposes of using it against drivers, the one with the lead is better coz they can't turn it off if they don't have the lead. i will ask around and find out where you get them, but usually hardware stores sell them, or you might be able to get one from somewhere like woolworths, or try those betterware catalogues that come round to your house.
but to be honest, for the purpose of rape protection, i don't personally think they are much cop. why don't you get your wife a tyre inflator/CO2 cannister. i've never tried it but i think it would be much more effective. i was thinking about this the other day when i was reading the warning on the packet. i nice cold burn to the face/eye area should give her some time. ideally, if you know someone that can supply you with a mace cannister even better (just don't admit to it being hers ... "Officer, it was his, i wrestled it from him")
but the most effective and powerful device of all that your wife has got is gut instinct. if she feels uncomfortable, in any situation, then tell her to get out of it. (and don't worry about offending anyone, if they are decent blokes they won't mind). It's a very common thing among rape victims to report that they felt something was not right but didn't want to cause a fuss or thought they were just being silly and carried on. God gave women an instinct because he made some men such sh!ts (present company excluded of course). next time your wife encounters someone out and about that makes her feel uncomfortable tell her not to carry on, but turn around and come home. if you see someone who you feel is acting suspcious then don't go towards them, make a hasty retreat. her safety and long term sanity is much more important than a training session. most importantly, report it to the police. it may be nothing but better to report it, than not to and find out something happened to someone else.
also, most rapes are by someone the woman knows so again you have to trust your instincts and not tell yourself you are being "silly". if you feel uncomfortable it's for a reason and you should immediately act on it. better to offend than to the end up down the local rape centre.

Very good advice Buggi!!0 -
Given that it took them a whole two minutes to come up with their reply, your spur of the moment response was pretty good.[:)]
You could suggest that they actually try reading the Highway Code rather than the tabloid press. The supposed requirement for cyclist to use cycle lanes is just an urban myth. However, an understanding of the need to check primary sources is probably beyond thier intellectual capacity.

Thanks Buggi, I'll get her to read your post when she eventually finishes drying her hair(been at least 20 minutes now)
CO2 inflator sounds like a great idea. She'll have a legitamate excuse for carrying it too. I shall accompany her on her weekend ride for the next couple of weeks (on hols from work)to see if we spot this guy again. Hopefully it's nothing - better we take a little extra care though eh?
Spotted that Aston Martin driving R.Sole yet?

If anyone gives me gip, I usually follow them home, wait in the bushes until it is dar and then set their car on fire. I then wait until the next day and torch their house. I then track down their place of work and burn it down, making sure in the process that I kill as many of their workmates as I can. I then kill their parents, their wife/husband, their kids, their brothers, their sisters and any other relatives they have. I kill their friends, their aquaintances and their neighbours. I then cut off their arms, blind them and pull out their tongues.
It's terribly effective, if a little time consuming and they never, ever cut you up again.

Re the 'Why don't you use the cycle path' jibe:
A good response is to scream 'CYCLE PATH? DON"T MAKE ME GO ON THE CYCLE PATH!!NO! DON'T MAKE ME GO THERE! ANYTHING BUT THE CYCLE PATH! AAAAAAAAGGGGGHHHHHH!!!!!!!'
People then know they are dealing with a cyclist with some severe mental health issues or a depth of sarcasm that is far too dangerous to even approach. Then eat your glove for effect.

It really depends on what is available. I do have a kit with the necessary "equipment" sitting in my shed ready to go at a moments notice but sometimes, you just don't have time to nip home. In that case, it's just what you can find lying about the house. I've even on occasion had to make do with the leg bones filleted from the "client's" still screaming partner, rubbed together until a spark can ignite their soon-to-be-lifeless hair.
