The only Zombies I worry about are the ones driving cars. Seven in the morning, going to work, mouths drooping open, blank stare, they're a real threat.

:plus1: Even worse when they are concentrating on a cell phone.

AHA! I never even thought about that alan - the whole "avoid the gas station" thing, as they will go zombie first... great point.

See! There you have it - yet another helpful insight from you that will likely save at least one life in the zombie apocalypse.
And isn't that what's REALLY important? (aside from all the information about GZ's of course! :lol: )

Addendum to Lesson #37: Fighting Off Zombies While In Transit.

Don't wait until you've got a lane full of zombies blocking your escape to learn some basic zombie clearing techniques. In addition to film study (really your best source of zombie survival information) of such educational documentaries as Resident Evil, various Living Dead editions (including Shaun of the Dead), Planet Terror and, to cleanse the palate, Zombie Strippers, make sure you get in some real life practice. If you're going with a pump action shotgun as your primary zombie deactivation device (this, IMO is a good choice) make sure you can aim, fire and reload with your left hand (if you are a rightie like me, this is not as easy as you think!) In most cases, you'll need your right hand on the throttle. Arnold Schwarzeneggar makes this look very easy in Terminator (II?), but he's been in a lot of movies and you haven't.

Thats because he was using a lever action shotgun, so he could do the fancy flip trick with it to reload.

I think a auto-loader might be a better choice for the prepared motorcyclist.

Now I gotta go back and watch that movie again. Zombie preparedness is a never-ending responsibility... sigh.

I've always loved lever actions; dear ol' Dad had a .30-30 Winchester; and who could forget Chuck Connors in The Rifleman?

Still, have to go with a shotgun for zombies, no question. And if you don't have a throttle lock you've got to go single-handed.
Remember the trouble Sarah Connors had at the end of T2 trying to single-hand that Remington 870?
Swing-cocking a Winchester 9410 will look pretty cool but I have to agree with Dentheman on the effectiveness of something like the Winchester SX3 autoloader.

You guys make some good points. Can any of you recall if Milla dispatched any of the T-virus infectees (aka... Zombies) whilst astride the Beemer? (REIII?) And, if so, did she manage to pump the Mossberg? IIRCC it was a single barrel.

Even if this Winchester you speak of proves to be the wiser choice, I'd feel a lot better about it if I saw some hot chick in a B-movie blasting away at the undead while motoring along on two wheels.
