  • Is there anything you can do to fend against acid attacks that isn't stupid?

    • wear a motorbike/full-face MTB helmet
    • wear sunglasses

    I'm not concerned - they don't seem to happen up here in Scotland - just wondering if anyone's taken precautionary measures yet

  • My plan is wear fuck off ridiculous “Pro” looking cycling glasses and always carry a bottle of water. More than that I’m not sure what you can do

  • I guess glasses are required for the moment. A bit of scarring isn't so bad in the grand scheme I guess (not to minimise the suffering of the victims) but if you get blinded over a few hundred pounds worth of bike, that's fucked.

  • This thread is horrifying to read. Makes me anxious about riding in London when I come back for work.

    If someone is stealing your bike will they allow you time to take the water bottle out of its cage?

    “Excuse me young ruffian. I understand you think nothing of blinding and scarring me for life to enable you to steal my bicycle but can I make a call upon your good nature and keep my bottle of water?”

  • Isn't that what already happened in 2012 when LFGSS went full roadie? 8)
