Climbing rope saving you when you're not climbing. 9-Nov-2015 At 5:13:15 AM bentobox

THREE times this week, for some unknown reason, climbing rope has come in handy.

I live in Portland (USA. Not the lovely south west vic town ...) where everything gets stolen. I rode my bicycle to the store only to realise I didnt have my bike lock. For some reason I had some prussick cord in my jacket pocket which I used to tie the bike to a rack.

Came out, my bike was still there. However, my headlight that I left on had been stolen. I have no doubt in my mind that had my bike not been tied up with 1000 knots, it woulda been taken too.

Two other times:

When I went camping and forgot to take a dog leash, the cord came in handy then too.
When my friends car got rear-ended and I used the cord to tie the boot lid down to stop it flapping about.

Thank you bogong.
