i wear air force ones when riding, haha. i also wear my bike chain round my neck quite obviously, maybe that puts off a few potential muggers? my bike's a converted old rusty dawes galaxy though so i don't reckon anyone would think it worth stealing. i've had a few cheeky kids try to push me off but if i see dodgy looking kids on the roadside at night i tend to subtly veer away from them a bit. worst i've really had is a kid spit in my face when i went past him up beckenham hill which was pretty shit.
