I diligently fitted bells to both my bike and my wife's. Can't remember if I ever used the bell, but certainly nobody ever checked whether we had one. I have a bell and compass combination on my touring bike. Compass is great. I like to know which direction I am riding. Never use the bell except for fun sometimes just to hear it ring. It sounds like we may have the same bell/compass. I do sometimes use the bell when I'm about to pass close to a pedestrian - for example, on my own residential street, which lacks sidewalks. But sometimes it just doesn't register, whether because their high frequency hearing is dime, or because it's just not a familiar sound. Then I say "Bicycle" followed by either "Hi!" or "Excuse me." That works for the one-in-ten who don't have earbuds. For the other nine, I yell at the top of my lungs "wake the f*** up brain dead!" That goes unheard, so I just ride through whatever gap I can find. If you can get their attention, they often startle and glower. My favorite are the earbud-ers with six dogs and a baby jogger. No gaps. I have to basically tap them on the shoulder, which totally freaks them out. Those people should have their phone numbers listed on their jogging suits so I could at least call them and ask them to move. I'm thinking of getting one of those locomotive horns.. -- Jay Beattie. |
