riding Beach Road this afternoon, an urban assault vehicle of bogans
drove past and emptied a barrel full of supersquirter water all over me,
also did the same to a female rider in front of me. I'm used to the
verbal abuse, but really this is getting rather tedious. At least they
were stupid enough to do it on a warm day rather than a cold day:-)

Water pistol + paint thinner...

Or water pistol + neat ammonia (works for vicious dogs as well ?).....

It's times like this when I wish I had a helmet cam or something so that I could go to the police.....but then I'd have to ride responsibly too.....hmmmmm.

Been thinking about bogan deflection diversion tactics, say a bogan friendly jersey or kit along the lines that Primal currently design. Think Chisels, Angels, Australian Idol, Anna Coren or whatever the proles are currently into.

Would bogan-friendly kit make them think twice (obvious sarcasm, do they have the ability to self-actualise) about verbally abusing someone? Could interactions with bogans be deflected into more friendly events, like:

WAAAYYY TER GO MOITE LURVE YA JERSEY

or even

FULLY SIC BIKE MOITE

or maybe

LURVE DER FIXY CONVERSION MOITE - SHES FUGGING HAUTE

Might dissolve the water pistol. Besides, violence begets violence
and it's doubtful escalating such a situation is going to "teach them
a lesson". Though I will admit the desire to throttle the [censored] is
difficult to overcome.

You certainly don't want an arms race. Reporting their rego
to the cops might earn them a phone call, you never know...

.... or an assault charge ... recall Gemma's recent case with egging in
Adelaide.

Assuming you don't mind having a partially dissolved water pistol tucked

Maybe carrying one of those water pistols that look a bit like a real gun in
a shoulder holster outside your jersey would be enough to stop the nonsense
happening in the first place. ;-)
They're cowards anyway so I doubt it'd escalate. They only do that sort of
[censored] because they think you'll never be able to catch them. If you do catch
them they're not hard to intimidate.
Another option would be the laser beams of death -

brake fluid in a squirt bottle, does wonders for paint work if not
cleaned off 🙂
