Yep, they're shooting at us!

I ride this bike path a lot, usually a couple of time a week, because the round trip is about 40 miles, and it is completely off the road. Usually, I ride it with another person, and I have the Keltec with me. Now you know why! A multi-thousand dollar bike is a target for stealing.

Call it "Bike Jacking" !!!
