Distress signal

[FJRider]

I'll remember to take a hood and trunk with me on my next bike ride to Canada, thanks for that

In another thread ... the (suspected) contents of your "trunk" was stated. So ... to reveal said contents of your "trunk" on the side of the road, will attract attention (fast) ...

But I think you may feel it to be undesirable ... and unwarranted. I may be wrong though ... desperate needs do require desperate actions.

Let me recap so I will remember. The best distress signal so far seem to be: Put helmet on the ground, show boobs, smile politely and wave as frantically as possible?

Hm, I think I will go with putting the helmet on the ground behind the bike and waving frantically looking very desperate and helpless.

Somehow can't imagine anyone would stop when I try to make a Y shape with my arm. Or if they do than just to laugh and take photos of this strange human statue.

I don't think it is possible without tools to take the seat of my bike.
Hm, did I forget anything, oh yeah, AAplus is good and don't go to Canada with a small bike as you have to drag a hood and trunk along.

The arm thing is open to ambiguity, so I suggest we stick with the boob thing. However, quality always counts, so I think before we make hasty judgment call there should be pictures. Still, I'm just a dirty old me

A fast learner ... I like that ....

You never know, some dodgy leather clad biker in arseless chaps might stop and finish of the MCA part.

the international distress call for bikes in canada is flipped upside down in the ditch with a moose limping off..

admittly at the end of the day in NZ a cellphone and a good list of mates to get you out of the shit is a better
idea, besides all of this boobie flashing might attract dikes on bikes.. maybe your cup of tea...

May I suggest pretend to be working on the bike. There's always someone willing to stop and tell you your doing it the wrong way

Brilliant !
Could even end up with a team, all doing something different, and getting in each others way.

It's worth a shot though .... I haven't attracted any dikes with all my boobie flashing ... I can't understand what I'm doing wrong .. My sister has a great deal of success with that method ...
