That’s bloody frightening, I ride that route everyday like many of us. Let’s hope these thugs aren’t smart enough to realize bikes and gear are far more profitable than a watch and sunglasses…. might have to increase my speed on this stretch and install a stun gun on my handlebars. Hope the jogger is well….. good to hear ARLO PD caught the suspects.

This is such an outlier that I’m not really giving it much thought. Who robs a jogger anyway? I never carry anything when I run.

If it was yet another flasher though… then I’d be more in favor of deploying the taser.

Even better – a gun rack: http://www.cyclelicio.us/2008/11/gun-racks-for-bicycles.html
