There's a landrover in that picture? What are these blue buckets you speak of?

The only things blue are my balls after looking at that pic

I’m too old to run, so unless it’s a Tornado I’ll be standing my ground.

Anyone that lives in Murfreesboro knows it’s a traffic mess on a good day. :(

So I wouldn’t get much past my driveway anyway.

But I do have a motorcycle and a Suburban if I need it.

I'm waiting on Mark to post pics of his old school Stryker.

I've been toying with the idea of selling my current truck and getting a late 60's-early 70's Bronco (either restored or original).

I've always loved those trucks and they are great platforms to build into anything from a street ride to a rock crawler.

has anybody else thought about a mt. bike as a BOV?

I just picked up my first mt. bike from a local bike store. I got a GT Outpost with an XL sized frame (about a 24" frame).

I'm looking at adding some Panniers and other bikepacking* equipment when the cash flow allows for it.

I think it'd be a good idea to have something like this, especially if your primary BOV goes down, it'd be a good back up before you would have to set out on foot.

here is a pic of my new mt. bike.

Needs a bell or some frillies or something to be a BOV!

*bikepacking: Backpacking with a bike...

I've been mountain biking competively for about 10 years. I can't imagine a better way to cover a lot of ground quietly through the woods than on a mountain bike. Requires no fuel and minimal mechanical knowledge to fix about anything than can go wrong. My mountain bike is very tactical since it's black:

Yeti Cycles // Ride Driven

It's really a little to light and racy for a true BOV but I would definitely toss it on the roof rack (and my wife's bike too) if we were getting out of dodge in a hurry. We also have a trailer that I can pull my son in. Some of my cycling friends don't know whey I'm interested in guns and lots of gun guys may think cycling is a little wierd but the way I see it they both would help one be more self-sufficient in case of natural disaster etc...

I'm a newbie with shooting and I think my wife is hoping I don't spend as much time and money on the hobby as I have with cycling. At one time I had 7 fully functional high end bikes.
