Glove invention

I had a great idea for a cycling glove, basically a normal fingerless cycling glove with the jaggedy part of a key sewn into the side opposite the thumb, so if a car is pissing you off, you can just reach out and key their car on the move and then cycle on outta there. Could anyone on here with some metalworking/ sowing skillz make one up? I pay dorra. would work better than carscratcher bar ends (espescialllly as I have bullshorns).

Be fun when you get a fly in the eye and go for the rub!

^^^ hahahaha

Or if you're really desperate to key cars you could just put your key on a little lanyard round your wrist which would be quicker and easier.

Or you could not key the cars.

just stick a spike in the end of your bars

amen to that scott, a big +1. the key to a peaceful life. haha.

i want to know if it can be done... i'm not saying weather i think its a good idea or not, i just want to know if it will work.

I wonder if any one on the Manhattan Project said that about the A-bomb?

of course it can be done, it'll just be like a glorified knuckleduster.
I don't see the point, there are more fun ways of pissing of cars, without having to be a twat yourself.
Like when a dickhead is trying to overtake you where there is clearly no room (around a corner for example) pulling out into the middle of the road and sitting there till his horn starts blaring and people stare at him like he's the stupid tiny-penised throwback that he is.

problems i see with it, 1 uncomfy, 2 breaking fragile hand bones when you fall on it, 3 hitting your self with the bit of medal.

1. debasing yourself to the level of idiots, douchebags, and london private hire drivers.

Seriously, all the debate about bendy buses - it's those fucking private hire drivers you've got to watch out for. Why are they all seem to drive like such appalling wankers?

mmmmmurphy.

my D lock sits in my back pocket. not had cause to use it, but that would cause way more damage to a car than a key!

The most effective thing I've found is to stop and politely point out that whatever ridiculous move they just pulled could have badly hurt you and ask whether it's worth the 10 seconds it saved them. Works on most people and for those who it doesn't I find a camera phone photo of their number plate effectively pisses them off.

Generally it's much better to try and stay calm - there's a lot of stuff that will piss you off and isn't going to go away, so why get stressed about it. I try and do this and usually only get annoyed by people who deliberately try and take me out. Since these monkeys have already used violence (and expect it in return), I find it's much more fun to rise above it and get snappy happy, blow them kisses or trackstand in front of them at green lights than respond with violence.

Though I don't agree with key scratching cars.

Well personally speaking....i'm pretty sure i do as many things to piss cars off as they do to me....i'm always in the wrong lane and having to cut across at the last minute...the streets are like a battlefield at the best of times....every man for himself....so unless they actually hit you or cause you to crash......just keep on riding and forget about it....if i was to get pissed off every time a car cut me up,i'd just spend the whole day pissed off....
Think how you'd feel if you cut a car up...then when you stopped at the lights the driver got out and scraped his key down your top tube.
Just keep riding,safe in the knowledge that you just avoided causing another motorist to be even more angry and bitter towards us cyclists.
Amen!

I had a great battle once with a woman in a little car. It seemed that I pissed her off by being quicker off the lights. In retaliation she overtook me almost hitting a bus on the other side of the road and then cut me up, only to get stopped by the traffic queue at the next lights - about 50yds on! Where I over took her once more. About half a mile down the road she tries to side swipe me cause I'm in the way of free space on the road - if she hadn't attempted the side swipe I'd've laughed it off. A further 50 yds on she's stuck once again by traffic, I overtake and she tried to run me in to the back of a parked car. I shoulder barged her car and punched off her wing mirror, forcing her to the other side of the road and avoiding the parked car, just! It was at this point I decided to let her fuck right off and took a different route to work. Sometimes they just piss you off too much and I wish I'd had a window smasher that you see on the back of coaches. That would have felt good. Glad I didn't though cause I would have felt bad about it later! Ah, feel the love!

Exactly, that's why you need a useful weapon...........such as a key in your gloves. :)

Yeah, good idea.

Tell you what, those young mums with double pushchairs are always pissing me off. They dither along in shopping centres taking up all the room, randomly stopping... one of your gloves would be great for slashing their little nippers faces up. That'll teach em.

Stanley Knife all the way ;-)

Yes! Minicabs are the worst. I bet they are just always looking at their GPS!

Those EasyJet little coach things - that constantly think they're *actually *buses and are allowed to drive in bus lanes - have got a little red emergency handle by the side door.

I found out yesterday that one quick turn of it opens the passenger door, sets off an alarm and the driver has to get out of his seat to close it again.

Fcuk mindless violence, I'm getting delayed gratification through petty mindedness.

lol

Works on normal buses too - emergency stop button ;-)

True, but most London bus drivers actually wear fingerless black gloves with studs on, so I'm not messing with them.

I'm also not messing with the massive coach and the flat bed truck that were racing each other up Stockwell Road this morning, using both lanes, the green box thing and jumping red lights. So i took a diversion and watched the haggard late leavers of Fire / Crash etc. They're just waiting for Mr Assfcking Dickscuking.
