  1. OK, now we got to work on a holster that works for bikes. Having them
    neatly packed around the thighs make them particularly practical and
    ready to draw...

    Or perhaps we can make some attached to the helmet, the gun triggered
    by remote control from the handlebar. I wished they could be activated
    by thoughts and emotions, in which case I'd become very trigger happy.

    I would approve of such a thing as long as the model wearing it comes along
    with it.

    The model comes with the holster and you provide the gun. 😉

    Seems to me that whether the model comes or not depends on how well you
    handle your gun.

    Some were just getting too serious on this. Glad we brought it the levity
    it should have. Now we have to figure out the caliber and load that a
    Cyclist can wield without losing control. Of course, you will have to
    holster your Cell Phone to use it.

    Not if you use my new, handy-dandy combination
    cellphone/pistol! When the safety is on, it's a uniquely-
    shaped cellphone (admit it... how many others have
    phones shaped like guns?); remove the safety and it's
    a semi-auto Colt 45! Earpiece located conveniently
    at the barrel end, mic below the trigger on the butt...
    pull to talk! I'm trying to get *all* mobile cellphone
    users to upgrade... the vision of someone driving and,
    instead of a cellphone, a pistol at their ear, gladdens
    my heart.

    Yes, one bad point though. Get the safety switch backwards and you just
    might be shooting your mouth off.

    That *is* the point, of course... thinning the herd!

    I carry a cellphone when I ride. It's for business. In heavy traffic, if I
    were to attempt to answer the cellphone I am quite sure that the herd would
    be thinned very quickly. I don't see many cyclists talking on a cell while
    riding. Maybe they clean up the mess before I can see it but I don't
    believe it's a wide spread problem.

    Which is, of course, why I spec'ed "*all* mobile cellphone users"...

    Are you also including me when I am riding my rocket powered roller skates?
    Not to worry, riding something like that, a cell phone is the least of your
    worries.
