Gus-gus,

I'm a rider too... you really need to find a way to make your phone accessible in short order. I ride with full riding gear, armored pants, jacket, gloves, full-face helmet, and I can access my phone in a matter of seconds by one zipper in the pants.

If you ever dropped your bike or hit a deer and no one was around, you don't want to have to take 15 minutes and remove all your gear to call for help.

In the situation as you describe, there is no direct intervention that makes sense. Unless you're got a select-fire rifle and several reloads with some real cover and back-up in an Apache, you don't take on 30+ people. Besides which, you don't know who's the "good" and who's the "bad" or if there even is a "good".

However, it is not safe to not be able to access your phone. That situation can and should be rectified.
