Chris: Please don't tell us why you were perusing the 'whips' and other accessories on line, I dint see a reference to vintage bicycle saddles on t he website you linked. Hummmm, I do suppose a good whip could be used in lieu of a can of pepper spray but how would you practice using one while r iding? You are not going to be wearing leather bicycling shorts too are you?
