Now there's a Cop when you need one!!

Made my Day!

Shame what would have happened if not stopped. Helmet cams finding all kinds of new uses!! !!
That's it... time to own one.

On a side note, I was reading this earlier today.

Interesting reading between a Cop and a Bike thief
3 out of 5 people are not the other 2.

Both! ;)

No my wrists don't suffer that much, I'm much more used to how bikes respond with clipons than being upright.

Although I may keep them for long trips as now I've done the conversion it won't take long to switch between the two set-ups :)

Force a wheelie and smash the front wheel against the robbers face? I like your logic. Put it in practice however and... Well, good luck! :lol:
