I am working on a video to post on youtube showing what it is like with and without the shirt. You would be amazed!!!

yeah, post it on the forum when you do, I gotta see that.

No, thanks.

Here in Ohio it would just make you more of a target!

No, thanks.

why do you say that?

1. I'm not a cop.
2. Only an idiot would mistake "County Police" for their local constabulary.
3. I don't want to be a target of the local gangs.
4. I don't want to be a target of the local separatists.
5. I don't want to be a target of anyone with a beef against cops.
6. People that pay enough attention to read the shirt from a distance aren't the people I'm worried about hitting me.
7. It's a [censored] stupid and ugly shirt.
8. Wearing something brightly colored with a color close to the center wavelength of human vision, i.e. yellow-green, is a more sure fire way to be seen.
9. Only a dumbass would think such a shirt would save their bacon.

If people are so scared of riding on the roads that they need to wear such an idiotic shirt, then said people should stick to the trails and MUTS where they'll be all safe and cozy.

I'd be amazed if the video actually showed you paying attention to what you were doing.

I would add:

10. I don't want to be a target of the local police who would view your shirt as trying to impersonate a police officer.

Perfect! Now, we can have "TEN reasons to NOT wear the Police Jersey while biking". I was going to reply to alienator's post that he should have added one more reason, but you have filled in the missing one.

No, thanks.

Alienator - Ignorance is bliss.

Hoooo doggy! What a ripe one you are! Why I imagine we'll all be educated and entertained, gathered around you, hanging on yer every word.

Alienator - Thanks for those words of encouragement, but I think I'll keep my posts limited to 10 or 15.

You go ahead and spend most of your waking hours trying to entertain people with your 2100 posts while the rest of us are out riding.

You'll keep it to 10 or 15 posts because your main purpose for coming on the board was to drop some spam on us in your "Amazing Video" thread.

Has anyone besides the OP ever used this?

So neither had anything to do with cycling? I am afraid 1000 people think you are wrong.

But either way, you and Alienator keep posting away. What is it now - over 30005 now? I think your average is about 13 posts a day right?

You guys dwarf me when it comes to spam - intentional or not.

Only three posts to go before you reach 15 and stop posting. That will be sad...

Look... maybe I misjudged you incstlouis. We have had a spate of spam trouble here the last couple of months... and when I clicked on your link in the other thread you set up... I found it had little to do with a cyclist near miss, and the website appeared to be the sort you would get in a spam email.

I now realize that you might have just passed on an email you received...not realizing that it was probably just spam... and got all excited when you saw a guy riding a bike in it.

But I am wary of your comment that you are going to stop posting after 10-15 posts... unlike the stalwarts you name with thousands of posts... such as myself. I can't think of any member who would join with the intent to start two threads and then wave goodbye... as you've stated your going to do...

Plenty of members fade away pretty quick or ask a question which gets answered, then they leave. But your threads are just topical "Hey guys... Check this out!" threads. So you wanted to join to drop the jersey and the video... then leave...or are you going to join again under another handle?
