Bo Staff
 

Does anyone know how I can transport my Bow staff on my bike?

It is a 6.5' staff and definitely awkward

Switch to a Minbari Fighting Pike. :lol: (Oh, if only. ;))

Generally if I'm transporting something long like that I just zip-tie it to my top tube and let it stick out a bit in front and back.

Weapons bag, like the ones that Bujin makes. Run the strap across your chest. The bo will angle down to one side and up to the other, so give everyone and everything plenty of room.

Here I thought this was going to be a business objects thread.

If you are not doing any contact with your Bo you can get a 2 peice Bo whouch could be bunjeed to your rack or backpack.

Your Sensei or Shihan might allow you to keep your Bo at the Dojo.

Hold it like a Jousting spear :)

Oh man. This would be a great defense against pedestrians.

Fear does not exist in this Dojo, does it? No Sensei
Weakness does not exist in this Dojo, does it? No Sensei

that's some straight up Kara-te Kid for you.

Attach it along the toptube with a bit sticking out of the front and back.

Ive carried long planks of wood strapped to my top tube and resting on the rear rack. You may need to pack some spacer so it clears to one side of the headset. If it sticks out a long way behind, tie some red rag for visibility.

See, and *I* thought it was going to be a Napoleon Dynamite thread.

so did i!

+1 for strapping it to your top tube and rack.

I carry a large beach umbrella the same way. A little foam or inner-tube wrap can prevent friction damage to the paint.

I would consider strapping it ACROSS the rack...get more room from passing cars that way:p

I have carried many long things 8'+ by strapping it to the top/head tube and the rack.

How do I transport a wolverine AND my twelve gauge home?

What do y'think! Strap it all to your rack! Gosh!

An angry wolverine strapped to a bicycle rack? Sort of a reverse carrot on a stick? :lol:

I thought the wolverine was dead!

So did Paul L.

Wanna see his stitches? :eek:

Ask Leonardo

But no really what are you doing with a Bo Staff on your back? I have considered rolling out with a katana before. Would have to buy a real one though not home shopping network crap.

Why on earth would you want to buy a katana? Unless you're a student of iaido (in which case you'd probably already own a iai-to), it would most likely be nothing but a pose-piece. Bad enough to hang it up in the rec room, but to "roll out" carrying a weapon that you don't know how to use? wtf.

As a child of the late 80's/ Early 90's: Thats Donatello (Leo used Katana's)

"Teenage mutant nija turtles........ Hero's on the half-shell..... TURTLE POWER" :D

I've held a badger before, but a wolverine? now you're just being silly.

I thought this was going to be a D&D thread.

I bet Bikerfox knows how to transport a bo staff.

+1 on the D&D thread.

Also, I have a buddy who does martial arts, loves working the bo staff, and needs to lose weight. Once he saw this thread suddenly the idea of cycling became more enticing to him. (He's into challenging himself....)
