Back in 1988 a friend & I both bought new road bikes a few days apart. Out on a ride he was complaining about a ticking sound, so we stopped and swapped bikes (I worked at a shop from '82-'85). There was no tick when I rode it, but when we he got back on his bike it came back.
It turned out to be the aglet on his shoelace hitting a crank arm.
