That, and a bell that disables any nearby cell phone. 'Round here, there are more people buried in their screens than lost in their ear buds. But both are black holes for situational awareness.

I bit the bullet and went with a Spurcycle and am happy with it thus far on the good network of paths we have around here. I do find I need to ring it a little earlier than I initially anticipated in order to avoid startling pedestrians, but it has a nice sustain and I think that helps people know how quickly/slowly you're coming up.

Thanks, I hadn't heard of this before. I have to remember to give it a try in the future. It sounds like it would work well where I ride.

I've also used it as a bear bell when riding in Brown Bear country.
