I still have most of the parts of a 2piece rod that turned into a 5piece courtesy of the spokes of my bike
That happened while salmon fishing in Nova Scotia
Here in CT, I used to often use a bike to fish the salt.
Often there's no legal parking near where I wanted to fish, so riding a bike and stashing it in the bushes was the way to go.
I had an old junker women's 3speed that no one would bother so I could leave it anywhere unlocked and expect it to be there when I got back.
The woman's style bike was the way to go.... much, much easier to ride with waders on.
The simpler the outfit, the more skill it takes to manage it, and the more pleasure one gets in his achievements.
