The next was I was talking with one of the rent-a-cops at my complex and he told me that the first few times that he saw me that he thought I was coming to buy drugs. Like someone seeking drugs would have multiple lights on their bike, ride wearing a vest and a kit. . .
99% of the people out there won't notice any of that. The thought process goes - adult on a bike, not wearing skin-tight clothes with logos plastered all over it? Drug/DWI/homeless, end of story.
