As reference, the contents of my right pocket, M-F:

The usual right pocket contents, thus the clip on the belt loop for my keys. ;)

Oy, just thinking about the hoops I'd have to go through to carry one of those here... :lipssealed::lipssealed::lipssealed:

Thankfully, I don't feel the need for one. You do you though. :captain::like:

Last resort though, but there have been muggings right outside of our office. We're right next to the UNC School of the Arts and so a lot of these young and naive art students wander off campus straight into "the hood" and don't realize it.

I've had a few instances of having to go places I'd rather not at hours I'd rather not. Just keep your head down, keep your expensive stuff out of sight, and get in, get out.

The beautiful thing about NYC is the culture of apathy. Nobody wants to get in anybody else's business. Follow that rule, and don't stand at the top of the subway stairs, and you're good. :like::turkey:

well Winston is very interesting in you can have a very nice neighborhood one one block and then the next block is gang territory.

We've got the art school and my office, on one side is a rough neighborhood, on the other side is a safe neighborhood, and half mile away we've got the millionaires living in colonial era houses and driving Geländewagener.

Now I'm curious about what happens at the top of the subway stairs... we don't have a metro or anything like that... just a bus line that's been accused of keeping the city segregated (thats a whole story all in itself)

There’s already been quite a few bikes here already. We’ll be going to Sturgis today to check it out! Looks like the Corvette Club of Illinois had a meet here last week as we saw several in East South Dakota on our way up and there’s still several here. There also may be a Mini Cooper club here as there was about 5 of them together in Custer :giggle:
They should be getting set up in Sturgis. Its amazing how much they transform that little town for the week!

:idea:If you cruise past the campgrounds you might get a glimpse of early arrivers working on their tans... :lipssealed:

I am very familiar with the block by block scheme...I think I have a 1-2 block buffer between my apartment and auto chop shops. About a dozen blocks west are housing projects.

Subway stairs - lost tourists will exit the subway and stop at the top of the stairs trying to get their bearings. Meanwhile, there's a train's worth of people trying to get to the top of the same staircase. Nothing infuriates a New Yorker more than being impeded from wherever they're going.

Not to be a big party pooper if you really want the leather holster but.... something like this cheapo carabiner might save you $39.50

Mine's is currently on a carabiner. Most of the time it hangs out in my purse, but if I don't want to carry it (Jeeping for instance) the carabiner is IMO dorky.
