I wrap it on a ziplock bag and put it in an anti slip pocket holster and carry that inside the waistband on the side of my pants, be Lycra, bibs or regular pants. I do wear over size fluorescent nylon shirts that don't let the bulk show. The gun needs to be light to be able to stay put throughout the ride. The ziplock still allows your finger to get in and fire.
Whatever, not carrying a weapon has worked for me so far, and the world would be safer if everyone followed my example.
There is true evil in this world, and this kind of thinking is naive! Gun carrying is a personal choice that is not for everyone. I decided I'm not going to be a helpless victim in case my life is in danger and I'm not going without a fight. I respect other people's choices as not to carry. God help me see it coming, because if you don't, it would not matter what type of protection you carry! First avoid, but if you can't, fight!

Pepper spray or a gun are options that you use if you are foolish enough to watch a motorist attempt to assault you, which is bad policy in the first place.
I agree! Better to run and avoid a confrontation than having to defend your self!
