Flags deterant

Flags deterant

Please use a flag when riding a bike in magpie areas......I ride a recumbent trike and have never been swooped or dive bombed.....magpies have excellent memores and will remember your face from season to season.....

They will also attack from the front not only the tear...we have experienced that..no amount of zippy ties or helmet streamers will stop a determined magpie....flags will on the rear of your bike......
