When we were kids, you may have had a honky-horn with a bulb on the end, perhaps you had bells with gears that strike multiple times as they unwind like one of those self-propelled matchbox cars. Maybe you unscrew your bell halfway so the cracks on the trail ring it as you weave through a crowd of other trail users. Or maybe you ride a folding bike through the airport with a little electric horn. Perhaps you’re the best kind of DIY redneck and have fitted a literal tugboat horn to a bike trailor so you can scare the bejeezus out of a coalroller after they dump a load of black smoke on you.

Whatever it is, I want to know about it and why you chose it.

    I like those classic ring ring one as it doesn’t sounds aggressive just to tell people i’m approaching, but sadly i couldn’t find it in market near me. On the other hand, i almost had a collision with someone who wear earphone and stare right into their phone while on their evening stroll, where after i ring my bell, he proceed to shift his direction onto my path. Have to move out of the way to not hit him, and he only see me after i went pass him.
