I guess necessary bike safety gear needs to include a brick

I walk my dog with a pocket full of rocks to throw at cars.

Can’t afford bricks. There’s a war on.

Once you collect a poo bag from your dog, you can just throw that.

I actually have a small but bright orange hatchet (I spray it to help keep rust off it and also to make it super easy to spot from the other side of my campsite) I keep on my bag, mostly for Camping, but I use the same bag when I'm on my bike.

I've started keeping it on, and have seemingly had less people giving me shit when I'm biking through town.
